Hi there MJR...ers..
I know a few of you are from Michigan, or near and around Michigan so I wanted to post a couple of links up for some petitions that are being circulated to keep some public roads open. The county road commissions in two seperate counties are taking public opinion on closing roads that access or connect NFS & state forest trails. If these roads are closed down, the trails they connect to will be lost.
A little background on Michigan trail system, if you don't keep up with that sort of thing, is that the DNR in Michigan (same as our BLM) is out-of-control. The state has seen massive closures and most of the trails on NFS and State Forest land arent even on the map. We are quite lucky in that our NFS rangers and for the most part the BLM work with the 4x4 community to arrange some equitable resolution. Such is not the case in MI.
Please, take a moment to sign these petitions:

Be forwarned!!! After signing the petition you will be taken to a 'donation' page. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DONATE. Your signature is already taken when you get sent to that page.
