So Dre tell me, do you understand what wilderness is being discussed here? I'ts not the forest out the back door of a home, this subject matter is about the lands being taken away by the few. I'm not trying to pick a fight just trying to figure out your view of a wilderness. Wilderness by definition is an uncultivated,uninhabited region, not a trail in Salt Lake. Be sure where you are riding because last time I checked snowmobiles are not allowed in the wildreness, nothing fancy here just facts. Anyway, this sport is great and we as a group ya must stick together to protect the areas we have. The problem with those who want more wilderness and try to persuade private land owners to lock us out is they are never happy with what they have. Also ALL snowmobilers MUST patrol ourselves and be mindful of the areas we ride in. Also as far as farming, mining and deforrestation goes for one farmers are losing land, miners are under strict guide lines with restoration they must do, and deforrestation, well, ya in urban growth areas for sure, but more and more these areas are being left more natural, so, I guess my next question to you is, and don't take this the wrong way but, do you really pay attention to all these issues or do you rely on what you hear from others? Just wondering, anyway, get more invovled and who knows maybe you will really get to like snowmobiling. gotta go!
