Friends:
A couple of items for your consideration:
Mammoth Trails Meeting – National OSV Regulations Comments
Mammoth Trails will be meeting this coming Monday, August 4 from 10:00 AM – 12 Noon at the Mammoth Lakes Library to finalize (and ship!) comments on the USFS proposal to “…amend the agency’s travel management rule (TMR) to require designation of National Forest System (NFS) roads, NFS trails, and areas on NFS lands where over-snow vehicle (OSV) use is allowed, restricted, or prohibited.” This is an important opportunity to provide comments to benefit OSV recreation on the Mammoth Lakes Trail System – comments are due August 4th!
Please go to the following links for information on the proposed USFS action and come prepared to discuss, edit, and sign comments at the Mammoth Lakes Library on Monday morning.

FYI everyone: There’s no such thing as an illegal trail (only illegal areas like wilderness, etc). The TMR is unconstitutional, and violates multiple laws (ADA standards being one of them). The TMR should NOT be recognized as legitimate.
Do your part.
Thanks!
