Yep sounds like more versions of whats happening down here.
I live 20 minutes from Wolfpen Gap ATV Area,you can find it on the net, and I've watched over the past 5 years as they close more and more trails in the name of erosion and runoff, and had planned to close the trail system except for weekends and holidays effective this year until it stirred up all the businesses that profit from those trails. After making everybody mad they suddenly were granted a two year extension, now who has the authority to grant the National Forest Service a two year extension to not close trails, and if they exist why is the National Forest Service attempting to close trails if there are other powers governing the process?
As I stated earlier, and I'm not trying to be a smartass, It's too much politics, the taxpayers of this country pay people to sit in an office and take away our privelages, whatta country we've become.
Sorry for the rant.
