[QUOTE="billulsund, post: 1393565, member: 19122"] This is the section that gets me and brings me to part 2 of my argument. How are we destroying habitat for these birds? They nest in trees and we wheel on the ground. I have yet to see a wheeling rig destroy or knock down an old growth tree. I can understand forbidding logging these areas as that would obviously destroy habitat. How is driving through an already esablished trail going to disturb these birds at all? It can't be the presence of people they are worried about because I believe you can still hike through these areas during the closure. I guess these birds wont nest if they can hear a motor running or something? I know that trying to understand the logic behind these closures is like :mad:. It just seems ridiculous to me that a popular recreational area would be shut down because of the possibility that we might be disturbing the habitat for a bird where 10% or less of the local bird population may or may not be nesting there. :wtf: [/QUOTE]
