Severe Road Conditions have prompted the BLM Rock Springs Field Office to close the Dutch Joe Road, southeast of Pinedale in Sublette County. Impassable conditions are the stated reason.
BLM Road 4113, commonly known as the Dutch Joe Road, which heads north off Sublette County Road 132, is the primary route to the popular Big Sandy Opening trailhead and Big Sandy Lodge. A local landowner reports a spring has emerged in the middle of the gravel road, creating a mud bog, and making travel hazardous.
BLM engineering and maintenance crews have assessed the road conditions, and will be making the necessary repairs. The road will be closed until further notice, and closure signs will be posted.
