[RC] [Guest] TNC - Ridecamp ModeratorJohn Bass jbass@xxxxxxxxxxxx I don't follow all this very closely, so I am not familiar with any lobbying of the NC to ban horses from PUBLIC lands... but if they choose to close trails on Nature Conservancy owned land, it is their perogative, as those are NOT public lands but privately owned lands, and they can do with them as they please.... unless, of course, you don't believe in private property rights, Around where I live the NC buys property then it is then taken off the tax rolls. I do believe in private property rights and would certainly like to not pay the taxes. I have always thought, and still do, that the NC is a frontrunner for the Federal Government. All the ranches North of here (Beatty Nevada) are on the NC hit list. The last ranch the NC bought, they turned around and sold part of it to the Death Valley National Park manager, a federal employee.
