Stamped Trail

[78calico]

I just read the entire bill and the part that Mel posted up is the only part that leaves us with a chance at still having access.
Specifically :
Sec.41.21.403 Incompatable uses.
(a) Except as provided in this section, the commissioner may prohibit or restrict uses determined to be incompatable with the purpose of the Stampede Recreation Area under AS 41.21.401 within the state-owned land and water described in AS41.21.405
(d) The commissioner shall
(2) recognize the traditional use of existing motorized and non motorized uses in the area and conduct trail rehabilitation or reroute trails to minimize damage and avoid senesitive habitats.

Unfortunately there are several other parts of the bill that I could see green activists turning into loopholes to exclude us and possibly even atv's.
If the commissioner ends up being anti-OHV with the bill as is, I see nothing other than a courtcase that would really reassure our rights to use the area. RS2477 law would be the only thing we would have to claim traditional use. Careful here though. The rex trail is right across the highway. It is an RS2477 and was closed to OHV use. You can bet the same people who pushed for it's closure will be eyeballing the Stampede.
