[QUOTE="OldTimer, post: 1235235, member: 58798"] Firstly, the closure is a result of quad damage, but the big picture is that hey are unwilling to designate and maintain a trail system. In the past, riders just unloaded and ran helter-skelter through the forest, cutting trails at will and creating mud-boggs where ever they happened to be. The Memphis Motorcycle Club has volunteered to map the area, erect bridges over waterways, and help maintain a trail system. It seems the Forest Service is not willing to allow an outside agency to maintain the area, nor are they willing to do it themselves. The problem is that, as owners of the land, we demand that we be allowed to use the land in a responsible manner and it's the DUTY of the Forest Service to make the area available for use. True, there are many different interests as to what use the land would best be suited, but as for now, it seems the interest of hunters is being catered to with little regard as to how other groups might also share in the benefits of ownership. With proper management, there is enough room to serve the interests of many different groups and also to rotate usage areas so as to maintain a balance. For instance, if a hunting area were zoned for trail usage for a season and vise-versa, the land in each respective zone would have a chance to recover from prior usage and at the same time could be used for a different type of activity. Makes sense to me anyhow. [/QUOTE]
