Agreed, and I would further go on to say one of the best things Bush has
done was to reverse the last-minute "environmental" executive orders of
Clinton's last few weeks in office, many of which (if memory serves) were
intended to re-classify a whole heap of Federal land as wilderness areas and
as such off-limits to motorized vehicles.

The DOI seems to be improving the quality and quantity of personnel in the
national park/national forest system but there seems to be a long way to go.
I'm interested even more now that I just bought a cabin adjacent to the
Huron National Forest in northern Michigan's lower peninsula.

The 11th hour Clinton "Roadless Plan" would have locked up around 60 million
acres of USFS and BLM land, creating an new land classification that's
simply de-facto wilderness. The law says only Congress can declare an area
wilderness, because it effectively means it will forever be a
cost/liability, with no means of paying it's own way through timber sales,
etc. What was worse was that many of these 60 million acres had lots of
motorized trails which the green clowns don't recognize as "roads". (If
grandma's Volvo can;t be drivin on it, it's not a road!)

The green goons thought they'd pulled a fast one and I congratulate Gail
Norton for her actions in bringing some sanity to this issue.

Ther's a big green war going on out West regarding private land holdings
near "raodless" and wilderness areas. They're trying to legally ****** a lot
of these parcels using eminent domain laws, etc. and we'll see how this
plays out over the next four years. The Rubico remains open partly because
there's private land right in the middle of the El Dorado NF and they're
guaranteed road access, which, of course, is the Rubicon. One gree radical
bunch is trying anew ploy to close the trail, saying that since there's a
helipad on the property, that constitutes access. Watch that space!
