I did a search and didn't see this topic posted anywhere so if it has been posted I apologize.
If you've ever wheeled the Mecca of rock crawling or do so on a frequent bases, you need to get involved now! There is a proposed travel plan being looked at that will determine how recreation is permitted in the Moab area for the next 20+ years. IN many cases it is not good news in any shape or fashion. If you live in or near the Salt Lake Valley mark 3 October on your calendar for one massive run to wherever they will be holding the public meeting, if your not in the vicinity and want to make a difference please stay tuned and when the time comes ensure you send in your letters and such.
OK folks, here is by far the best info I can give you with minute to minute updates. Follow the link and thread that I have pasted. The document is out (over 800 pages), read it, digest it, then send some intelligent comments forward.

There as well is a link that "scoutabout" (board member of the U4WDA) included that shows the public meetings to be held.
Furthermore, if you think that it doesn't concern you because it isn;t your backyard think again. If the eco-nazis can screw around with the Mecca they sure as hell can screw around with your backyard.
Most importantly sent this link to every cotton picking board that you are a member of or know of. We need to speak loud and clear with a thunderous voice to KEEP OUR TRAILS OPEN!!! If you don't send in a comment than you just became part of the problem by doing absolutely nothing.
