Thanks kane, I posted a comment there, more of us sledders should do the same (in a civil manner of course), many people view that site and I think the greenie groups that comment on there provide a lot of misleading information that the public buys into because they are simply not hearing our side....which happens to be the truth

Ya you bet, i posted too some how we have to be heard anything we can do is better than doing nothing. This whole thing needs alot more attention by everyone because it involves everyone instead the government is hiding it behind closed doors and cutting deals behind British Columbians backs. I wonder how they can do this i mean everyone has to fight this not just snowmobilers anyone who uses the outdoors it is going to affect logging and reforestation what about all these areas that are unplanted? Imagine how much beetle kill is in this area are they just abandoning it? This bill 30 and the caribou closure go hand in hand i think there is a hidden agenda here somewhere.

these stupid bum fuc&s probably have never even been into any of this country that they want to close. The closest they have been is flying over chasing caribou and saying how loud noises scare the cariboo. I would run to if i had previosly been chased,tranquilized and collard from a chopper. All these "HUB" ares that they want to close are the areas that I sled in. Our club and the sicamous club has worked a great deal to try to come up with an agreement to keep some acces trails open and now that is not good enough. This is an issue where we need to make a stand on now or it will just keep expanding untill we are all packed into one area.

This may explain the closures kinda seems like it in the north anyways, i don't see where snowmobilers are a problem they are just kicking us out first cause we are the only ones back there right now. I wish they would let everyone know, someone tell me i am wrong here plz. http://www.forrex.org/publications/other/ProjectReports/Caribou_MPB_Summary.pdf

what is diminishing the caribou is that the snowpack is no where near what we used to get say 20 years ago so the caribou with the less snowpack cannot get high enough to reach the lichen in trees us snowmobilers have no effect on them what so ever
