Suzy Johnson at the California Association of 4WD Clubs has posted an Access Alert related to the National Giant Sequoia Monument, and I’m forwarding the information on along to you guys. If you’re at all concerned about access to California’s public lands, it’s important that you get involved.
From CA4WDC:
Proposed plan to transfer Giant Sequoia National Monument from the control of the US Forest Service to the National Park Service would result in loss of recreation opportunities
We need all of our members to urgently write a letter to the President, federal and local legislators opposing a proposal being floated to move the management and control of the Giant Sequoia National Monument from the USFS to the National Park Service.
The move could potentially cause the loss of camping, mountain biking, equestrian and other opportunities within the Monument that are not allowed by the National Park Service.
We have prepared a letter to help you get started. It will be sent automatically to the President and your state and federal representatives. To access the letter, visit the Action Center at this link Be sure to write your own personal comments if you can.
Yeah, I know; writing to any public official with a “(D)” after their name is generally a waste of time since they don’t listen. We’ve still got to try, and get our opinions on record.
