I might add to this that it takes numbers! Like in MANY, MANY people dancing
attendance on the officials. Arlene and I have been the proponents of train
our area. Every one else just "lets us do it for them" We go to meetings or
hearings and the officials say "we know why the Morris' are here" and then
pass on to other things. You need MANY, MANY people so there are new faces
in front to those making the decisions, One or two will not do it. We have
been advocating for trails for over 20 years. We are asking the same people
the same questions and getting the same answers that we did fifteen years
ago. New faces, faces changing all the time will make the best impression.
The same old face they can ignore.

>  Joan, don't give up! Go to the meetings whenever they are, involve the
REER and the Cresent City Horseman, find out who the Recreational person is
in the BLM or FS and get to know them. Stop by their office and ask how the
trails are or how the planning is going. It becomes hard not to accomodate a
group that avails themselves to them. The problem is most of us really just
do not want to do what it takes, it takes being persistance to continue to
oversee what is happening in our own area. . I've got the Siskiyou Prodject
in this area trying like heck to close off huge area's to horses because
they feel it is destroying the wilderness. Joy in the Siskiyous
