Dale Hallett has written a couple of articles on the protection of Palmer an old mining town located in the Mark Twain Nation Forest. His article Forest Service ORV Study slams the Forest Service's idea of opening land to ATVs and argues safety and additional stress on an already taxed local fire department. Make sure you check out the links at the bottom to Take a Ride Through An Offroad Park and See What They Intend To Do To Palmer
and Hell on Wheels. Maps of the proposed study areas can be found here. In Dale's next article Environmental Impact Statement Due he discusses inadequate enforcement but also gives the side of the Forest Service. Dale was also published in The Journal with a similar article.
Good reads!
