Just passing this along to get the word out as many places as possible.

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 WSA was created in the Wyoming Wilderness act of 1984. It was supposed to be evaluated and a recommendation made within 10 years. The recommendation was made, but congress chose not to act on it. So the environmentalists use this every chance they get, to try to gain wilderness. The WPLI process was started to try and make a final decision, and put an end to the continual battle we face with the environmentalists. We are currently well below the 1984 use levels in this area.
I am on the WPLI committee, and the more specific your comments the more they will count.
I need comments that ask for no new wilderness, and ask for a final decision, to ensure the continued historic recreational use in this area.
Comment that you do not want to see this remain in limbo for another 30 years.
Ask for specific language be included to guarantee winter motorized access to the entire area.
Thanks you for your help on this,

Please email your comments to wpli@parkcounty.us
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!
