I have hiked and mountain biked for years in the Angeles National Forest (specifically in the Strawberry Peak and Arroyo Seco roadless areas) and hope to explore other National Forests soon. These protected public lands are our national treasures, and they must be preserved—with exactly the kind of protections the Roadless Rule provides. Rescinding this rule and opening these protected lands to road building and logging would dramatically harm them, irrevocably damaging sensitive ecosystems that in many cases are not protected elsewhere (within the National Park System, for example). The Roadless Rule is a sound, common-sense regulation. It does not prohibit multi-use activities within the areas it protects—it simply ensures damaging roads are not built. We must be good stewards of our public lands and ensure they remain healthy, thriving, and undeveloped for future generations. Please keep the Roadless Rule intact.
