Great Wide Open – Clif Koontz, Ride With Respect

Trail aficionado Clif Koontz is the first Great Wide Open guest of 2021 and chats motorized recreation – another first for the show. As host Lisa Hathaway remarks, motorized recreation is a big part of Moab’s outdoor recreation scene, and Clif is at the center of advocacy and education around conscientious trail use. The pair discuss his work with Ride with Respect and the Grand County Motorized Trails Committee. Plus, they don’t shy away from the harder topics like bridging the gap between non-motorized and motorized recreation and curbing impacts of motorized vehicles.
