[QUOTE="KarlVP, post: 1480794, member: 16136"] my reply Howdy Ken, As an avid off road enthusiast I am concerned by your comments on motorized users causing damage to this area being the cause for the restricted access. If motorized users are damaging the area by travelling off of the main logging roads they should be held accountable. I fear DNR's major concern in the area is to the resources. In the DNR's eyes all user groups from hikers and horseback riders, mountain bikers, quads and motorcycles, to the 4x4 community cause damage to the trails and area simply from the folks that are uneducated. This can be mitigated by education and enforcement of the current rules. The "Tread Lightly" campaign comes to mind when trying to create good ties across all user groups. We need to all work together to maintain access to the PUBLIC lands we all love to frequent. It really discourages me to see the fingers start pointing when an area is in jeopardy. Instead of all the user groups blaming each other, we should all work together and educate so public lands can remain public. Thank you for your time regarding this matter. Sincerely, Karl VanPetten Sultan, WA [/QUOTE]
