Interesting Read on Canyonlands in UT

The same people did the same thing a few years ago to close Moab. Many companies threatened to sue because their names were added to the list without permission, many of the companies had to be removed from their letter. They even listed a couple of off-road orgs! This is a common liberal tactic of making shit up to get attention in Washington and alienate ememies from their core group. I see that companies are already demanding to be removed from their fake list. The Sierra club does the same thing here, and it wouldn't surprise me if they tried to say Infectious Off-Road supports them; these crooks are accountable to no one. So its best to do some fact checking before black-balling a company.
That being said, about half the businesses in Moab are anti-access. These idiots get 70% of their annual revenue from Easter Jeep Safari, and about 90% from off-roaders in total - YET THEY DONT WANT THEM IN MOAB!!!! That fiscal genius is known as Obamanomics.
The next 4 years are going to be tough for wheelers. The act to release wilderness study areas will go nowhere, as Obama already said he will veto it, Crazy Pelosi's desert protection act will get support from the white house, and land use on federal land will be at the forefront again. The Stewards are going to need a lot of help.
