No one else up for the Haul?
 
why are we speaking in code still if it's been closed :confused: doesn't really matter how many people find out about it now.... actually the more the better as it might bring more attention to our wheeling places being closed down.
 
Maybe "they'll" forget about it and find a new place, then when it "opens", "they'll" never know.....:rolleyes:

And maybe monkeys will fly out of my pooper.

Guerillia warfare baby.

I say we find some contractors who like to wheel and head out there with a bunch of bachoes and bull dozers and open the trail back up. Then we chain a rusted out 4x4 to a few dozen trees just like the hippies do. It usually buys them a few hours days from keeping the loggers out. Then they get the sympathy of millions of other hippies/congressmen who don't even know what type of tree they are chained to. It should at least buy us a few days of good wheeling time. :hhmm: If the rangers give us any crap we just take his radio and chain him up as well. Drug him and make him spew our propoganda and then throw it out on all the cable and alphabet networks. Make it seem like he chained himself up.

Worst that could happen is we get labled as ECO TERRORISTS, but since Obama seems it is more necessary to charge our CIA Agents for torture and let those past terrorists run free on our dime thru the Northern plains we should be fine :cheers:

Lets go wheeling :steer:
 
I'm down with that Jason.

As far as still trying to keep it secret. It doesn't matter anymore, they are paving things over and making parking lots it isn't going to reopen without a huge fight, and the only way to do that is have more people know about it. Keeping it secret is got it like it is. The FS was able to close it on the hush hush because not that many people knew about it and no one wanted to talk to the FS about it and try to do trail maint on it. The plans for closing it were on the books over two years ago but no one knew about it because the few people who knew about the spot and kept it secret didn't talk to the FS. According to the documents anyone opposed to the closing had time to voice their opinion in the begining of 2008. I bet that was a pretty empty room.
Just my 2 cents the more people that know about things the more there are to fight and keep it open.
 
I think this is really a double edged sword because the more people know the more Public it becomes and the more traffic it sees which causes those "erosion, and whatever" other issues they try and fight against. But I do agree that more people involved makes more sense.

I agree 100% with what you said Greg. It is a slippery path we walk for our hobby and our love of the outdoors (that isn't seen as love by others)
Back in Cali they have signs at the beggining of every trail head telling people to keep on trails and pick up trash the power is yours, that kind of stuff. All trails are made public and if one gets threatened everybody jumps on it. I can't remember one trail closing down in recent years either and we had about 15 times the tree huggers back there than we do here.
I'm sorry for cramming up a thread about harlan with chat and if you want to move all this into the thread we already had going thats cool.
I've just been getting more and more pissed off about the whole closure thing recently. I'm going to have some :beer:

I am going to make it official. I am in for the trip to Harlan.... Looking forward to it. Arkansas was just too far away for this year.
 
Alright, list has been updated to include Josh. So I'm assuming that the list is pretty up to date, since no one else has posted any interest... We'll have 8 rigs, I'll make 10 "info packets" for everyone, although we'll be going up with Stan, who has been there before and can act as a guide for us.

Food:

Thursday night: Eat in town?
Friday night: I'm thinking everyone can bring the components of a good chili recipe for one night.
Saturday night: Fall themed dinner

Other info to come
 
I have a buddy from Greensboro that is coming along for the ride. He will be driving up maybe late Thursday, but won't have a trail rig, so I'm looking for some seat time for him with me and some of you guys with open seat(s).

:beer: R
 
Brian mark me as tentative. I really want to go, I just can't commit to the days just yet.
