The comment

As an outdoor enthusiast and a hunter I urge you to leave Roadless Areas roadless. The 2001 Roadless Act protects wildlife and habitat. I live near the Ouachita National Forest in SE Oklahoma. Every where there is a road it seems as if the USFS is hell bent on selling off timber and abandoning that area to allow it to grow into a huge thicket. If they would use controlled burns in those places it would benefit everything, but they don’t. The few places where controlled burning is done it’s usually too little & too late. Leaving the roadless areas roadless would keep help tremendously.

Keep learning. Keep speaking up.The Roadless Rule depends on public engagement. Share what you've learned.
