Public Meeting

Either thats a poor picture or I am--indeed old and in need of glass's,lol...

Also here is something from the paper they had word by word.

Our goal is to reopen reiter as soon as possable next year. How much we can reopen will depend on many factors, including how much restoration work gets done, what trails can be constructed, and how well the weather cooperates. Volunteers can help move things along

My point is volunteer help is going to be a big part of getting the prodjects done.

Looks like ALOT of DNR land to me. And I am pretty sure the upper boarder of the map is the border for wildsky.

Yeah, well, the same paper said 1,000 acres of 2,000 would be for motorized use. :flipoff:

Seriously, you may want to give your DNR guy a call and confirm. Too many people have heard two different distinct things. Sounds like clarification is required.

That info was not stated in the paper but I will make a call tommorow to confirm. Who knows I may be wrong but I heard 2000 acres ORV and also heard that hikers/bikes and horses were not in the ORV area.

I don't :booo: I have been looking for a copy of the map that they had up near the front as that showed the area. Basicly north of the main road and east of the main road that goes to the upper cell towers.

I can't believe he couldn't answer one question straight up, i was very disappointed. From a "World Class Facility" to "You are Criminals" to "You have Elbe and Tahuya", i left with a sour taste in my mouth.

There are a thousand things i could complain about from that meeting, but there's one thing that's good. Atleast we still have something, and it's not gone completely.

PS What is P5000?

Typical politition(sp) IMO. Plus being the "top" guy I am sure he has to be carefull what and how he says things--granted he did goof a few times :haha:

Not gone for sure....

the area i circled was what they had high lighted at the meeting i believe travis posted the dnr map earlier in the thread the lower half is what they had up there at the meeting as to what we will get back (hopefully)

Same area I described--but it was an odd shape on there map--kinda looked like a retarded blob so to speak :redneck:

"The state identified about 2,000 acres that they say are flat enough for use and don't threaten wildlife. Off-road vehicle users will get about half, while the other half will be reserved for hiking and other recreation."

Still not what I had heard... But as I stated I could be wrong...

But its still a mute point as I will continue onward...

Clark · Oct 23, 2009

There is so much misinformation going around it's rediculous, even if you ask the DNR head hancho Mark himself, he will contradict himself.

The only thing you can do is Voulanteer your efforts, and cross your fingers that they can pull off anything.:booo:

I will talk to david tommorow and see if one is available in digital format. But since the sepa thing is not done yet--there is not "real" map available a while ago to the general public (in digital format).

A dirtbike/quad area just South of Granite Falls that they closed in 2005. I guess there were alot of head on accidents, dumb people and trash dumping.
