As much as I would like to believe that signing a petition would help, sadly it won't. With their target being set at a mere 5000, that wouldn't nearly be enough to have it put on the ballot. While I completely disagree with any closures, the tree huggers typically always win. Glamis is a perfect example, and unfortunately the PNW is littered with tree huggers, that have tons of money behind them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn R Posted July 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 This is just a start. It will give us time by extending the deadline. I would appreciate all than can take a moment and sign. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheesandrider Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 I am at Sandfest right now and they are circulating petitions to sign at all the events. We need to get EVERYBODY to help us out and sign this so that we can hold off the enviro nuts. So far we only have 1700 of the 5000 we need. This is just to get a temporary halt to the plan that will go into effect on August 1,2011. They will be closing ALL trails in the Oregon Dunes, you will only be able to ride in the open sand. It will close Banshee Hill and all the other tree climbs, etc. It will also make Dunefest suck so please sign the petitions and help us out.

Banshee Hill does not look to be on the chopping block any longer. The USFS proposal indicated Banshee Hill as a "Designated Trail", meaning it would be one of the only trails left open. Thanks for all your support guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
