Default They are closing all of Oregon's dune trails!

Under the new 10c rules the forest service is closing all of the trails on the Oregon Dunes. This reduces access and cuts approximately 103 miles of trails down to a pathetic 4.
USDA Forest Service - Siuslaw National Forest All Units NEPA Projects - 10C Designated Routes Project
Everything in yellow will be closed.

If you've ever ridden or have wanted to ride the Oregon Dunes I encourage you to comment at the following links and request that these trails stay open:
http://mailto:comments-pacificnorthw...ast@fs.fed.us/
or
http://mailto:angelamorris@fs.fed.us/

Even if you haven't ridden here, we are all still in the same boat. More closures mean less riding areas. This is our last chance to speak out before we lose major sections of the Oregon Dunes.

Thanks!

It will be a damn shame if these proposals go through, I will be down at the Flornce dunes (Driftwood) the 4th oj July weekend, I'll be sure to hit all the tree shoots and trails.

There is also an online petition:

Spread the word. Send comments to the forest service.
