Cooke City, Beartooth riding area comment period open

For those of you who do not live in Wyoming or Montana, but come riding in the Cooke City area, this concerns you!

Hello outdoor enthusiasts,

I know you have seen information from me in the past several months on the WPLI process. It is time now for comments on the High Lakes WSA. The comment period ends FEBUARY 1st!This is almost everything we ride on the north side of the highway in the Beartooths. If we lose this area, it will cut our riding in half, and stick everyone in half the area. Think about that for a minute. I for one do not like riding a tracked up mountain, so I would like to have every single acre open that we can. If you are not familiar with this process, stop and see me at Roger’s Sport Center, and I will be glad to explain it to you. We need your support on this, if we are going to secure this riding area permanently. Let’s put this to bed once and for all!
The link to the commissioners page is http://www.parkcounty.us/commissioners/wpli.html. The link to the High Lakes Proposal is http://www.parkcounty.us/commissione...highlakes.html . Please go to the site, and comment on this important issue. During the comment period for the McCullough Peaks, we were vastly outnumbered, with only 25% of the comments coming from the motorized community! Please do not let this happen again. Take a few minutes and comment.

Thanks for your support!

The WSA is a wilderness study area, that was supposed to be evaluated within a 10 year period. Congress failed to do so. The WPLI process was started so we could finalize the management of these areas. We need to be involved so we can be a part of the decision on how this area will be managed going forward. In your comments, please include that you want no new wilderness, that you ride this area, and that you want something to ensure that you will be able to continue to recreate there for the foreseeable future.

Thanks for your interest and help!
