Sublette Residents Say Mountain Bike Trails Would Harm Famed Mule Deer Migration

Sublette County residents came out mostly against a proposed 18-mile mountain bike trail network near Pinedale on Tuesday, telling the county commission it would harm a vital migration route for the prized Sublette mule deer herd.

Supporters told the commission the project is planned in a way that it wouldn’t disturb the deer and could provide much-needed recreational access for locals and visitors.
