shakran.....

I'm sorry but I don't see why a 100 foot stretch of mud in the middle of the woods matters. WALK AROUND IT. Not that I go out of my way to create huge mud holes but.....I try to watch my path if I can avoid rutting up a trail I do so. Not for the purpose of saving the planet but because Huge ruts are the reason the state doesn't open state land to ATVs.

In VT we have thousands of miles of hiking trails and maybe 400 miles of ATV trails(scattered across the state made up of approved private property). The ATV trails in VT are completely seperate from the hiking trails(mostly state owned). If an ATV is found on private property, the main road or on state owned land it can be confiscated. Most of the time though the rider is just heavily find.

You know what bugs me most of all though....Ski resorts can clear cut an entire mountain and the pinko liberals are happy as s--t, but if they see an ATV in the woods its the end of the world.
