Newbie here....
Just had a couple questions regarding a "roadless" area in Pike Nat'l forest that I am looking to open a claim in. My 1st question is regarding whether these area's are open to mining claims? I was also wondering if I have to get approval from the FS to access this area via a "closed" FS road on my ATV to carry my equipment? No gate on this road, just shows closed on a forest map online which used to be listed as "4wd" until the area went raodless*** Thanks in advance for your advise, Jim |

There are different reasons for road closures but a designated "roadless area" makes me think "wilderness area". Is the area open for mineral entry or is it protected? You may need to follow up with the blm for specifics unless you can take a pic of the map and post it.
