Wheelin' in Alaska's State Parks - LEGALLY!
#1
If you want to make this a reality, open your mouth if you haven't already. :yawn:
The deadline for public input is rolling around, and if the bulk of their feedback is bunny-huggers, you can bet your handy-man that there will never be designated off-road trails in the parks for our rigs.
We've made progress with the state and at this point they are opening up a lot more area for ATVs to "feel out" the impacts of light motorized use. They are still pretty gun-shy when you start asking about trails for full sized vehicles, but they want to know what kinds of uses the public wants to see in the parks.
I've talked with DNR (mostly regarding the Chena Rec area) and they want INPUT! Alaska is on virgin ground as state parks go - nobody else has the kind of ATV traffic we do - but other states do have off-road trails. It is possible, but they hae to know there is an interest.

Here is a link to their website:

I was told to let people know to get your feedback in by the end of the month so they can move to the next phase.


So, Sick 'em!!!!!!!!
