Bridger-Teton National Forest has draft travel plan
With powerful off-road vehicles able to rip and tear almost anywhere, the establishment of a national forest’s travel plan has become a critical matter, especially when it is a forest like the Bridger-Teton, contained some of the best scenery and wildlife in America. The travel plan for the “Teton” portion of the Bridger-Teton is moving along with on-line public comments due Feb. 5, 2007.

I did post a story on this a couple months ago, when the travel plan was in what Forest Service calls “the scoping stage”.
