The Secesh Wildlands Coalition is resurrecting the 30 yr old Forest Service reccommended wilderness plan running north to south along the east side of McCall. It sounds like they want to make a few revisions but that it will include about 200,000 acres that run from Loon Lake (north of McCall, accessible by Warren Wagon road) to the Needles mountains south of McCall, east of Lake Fork area. It would encompass the Lick Creek mountains (the mountains east side of Warren Wagon Rd.) and span east to the South Fork River. So wondering if this will include all that precious riding into Brush and Box lakes that you access from Pearl road off of Warren Wagon Road as well as all that awesome riding around Thirtythree, Boulder and Louie Lakes up around Jug Mountain? I'm sure it does. Sounds like we'll see arial photos soon with the proposals if they are not already out. I'll watch for them and post more info as I see it.
Motive for this Wilderness is for better protection of wildlife and their migration patterns - which would also create cooridors between other Wilderness areas from Hells Canyon to the Frank Church and Gospel Hump wildernesses.
