I don't know of the link will work. So far it's the only article I have found. This is right in the middle of the state's best backcountry hunting and fishing. Now I don't know the effect that heli-ski operations have on the landscape, but I do know what dirt bike and ATV trails do to an area as sensitive as this. To me, this is just one step in sacrificing our (mostly) untouched wilderness areas to people with the money to exploit and privatize what they can. What comes after lifting monument protections you say? How about lifting wildlife refuge protections, then lifting wilderness protections. This administration is like the anti T.R. and they seem to be efficient and deliberate in undoing many conservation based Acts in benefit of (dare I say) mineral extraction. Apparently we are not being vocal enough. Time to call Barrasso, Enzi and Cheney. Discussion?
