WILDERNESS DESIGNATION IS BAD FOR RECREATION:
As you know, the Wilderness Act prohibits all forms of motorized and mechanized recreational access and also affects even equestrian activities. It is important for you to tell the Forest Service that they should develop an alternative based on the BlueRibbon Coalition's Back Country concept. Back Country will protect the scenic nature of the area while allowing for responsible multiple-use recreation.
