I copied this from SBR (local forum), it would be good to spend 1 minute to try to save another 1000 miles of single track: This is easy to be heard: In just Two Minutes you can help stop the proposed closure of 1000 miles of trails which are vital for recreation as well as the local economy in the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest. Please ACT NOW there only a few days left to get your comments in by the 9/14/09 deadline The Forest Service states "Need not determined" as the reason they must close most of the trails. Yet they lead to vistas, scenic byways, secluded lakes, creeks and primitive camping. None of these trails have been proven to affect water quality, habitats, or plants. However unless more people speak up in favor of preserving these great trails it is likely they will be lost forever. Please ACT NOW comments are due before 9/14/2009. Click below and create your letter in just Two Minutes to the Humboldt National Forest to help keep trails open by using predrafted or your comments. http://www.savethetrails.us/Default.aspx?PetitionID=40 Please share this email with your lists and post it on blogs ~Thanks your friends at Save The Trails This campaign is supported by Sierra Trail Dogs, Save The Trails, Stewards of the Sierra National Forest, Recreation Outdoors Coalition, Sierra Access Coalition, CORVA, National Off Road Association and others.
