Beginning the first week of next year, people wanting to obtain a permit for driving on Soldier Pass Road in Sedona will be able to do so by using a national reservation and permit website. Coconino National Forest officials say the Soldier Pass Motorized Use Permit system will be available through www.recreation.gov. Many of the rules and regulations of the current system will still apply. The daily permit allowance will still be 12-permits and applications are only allowed 90-days out. Instead of having to submit requests no later than 72-hours in advance, the public can apply for permits up to the day of use using the new permit system.
