Motor Vehicle Use Maps & Motorized Travel Aids
The Motor Vehicle Use Map (MVUM) shows where it is legal to drive a motor vehicle on Kaibab National Forest. Having an MVUM is as necessary for motorized travel as having game proclamations when going hunting.
The MVUM is not a totally complete map showing all forest roads due to the fact that there may be a temporary road closure thus this map may not display fully those roads. Please check the Alerts & Notices page for current closures. Although other travel aids or more detailed maps may be used in conjunction with the MVUM, it is the MVUM itself which is the reference document for where it is legal to drive a motor vehicle.
Seasonal weather conditions and natural events may render designated roads and trails impassable for extended periods. Designated areas may contain dangerous or impassable terrain. Many designated roads and trails may be passable only by high-clearance vehicles or four-wheel-drive vehicles. Maintenance of designated roads and trails will depend on available resources, and many may receive little maintenance.
The MVUM is republished every year, so please be sure that you are using the most current version when driving on the National Forest.
If you would like a free hard copy of these maps, they are available upon request at any of our forest offices or by calling the Kaibab National Forest Supervisor's Office 928-635-8200.

Travel Map: A Helpful Companion to the MVUM
The MVUM's large physical size could make it difficult to handle or refer to while traveling, and some motorists have found that the MVUM's small map scale and spare cartographic design make it difficult to locate themselves with confidence along the roads and trails and within the areas that it portrays.
In response to these concerns, the Kaibab National Forest has developed GPS-enabled travel maps for each of its three ranger districts (Williams, Tusayan and North Kaibab) for smartphones, tablets. These maps are specifically designed to help motorists locate their position while traveling on the forest and using their devices. The road, trail and area designations depicted on these travel maps are identical to the road, trail and area designations depicted on the current versions of each ranger district's MVUM.& However, these travel maps are not the official MVUM and should be used as a supplement to, not a substitute for, the MVUM.
