I urge USDA to reject full rescission of the 2001 Roadless Rule and select Alternative 1, the No Action alternative. I am a resident of Corvallis, Oregon and regularly visit these nine Roadless Areas in Oregon and Washington: Marsh, Tahkenitch, Echo Mountain, Maiden Peak, Waldo-Fuji, West-South Bachelor, Sawtooth, Pasayten Rim and Liberty Bell. I visit these Roadless Areas to hike, observe and photograph wildlife, and enjoy the solitude of an area without vehicle noise. Besides all the benefits they provide humans, Roadless Areas provide critical, undisturbed habitat for wildlife feeding and reproduction as well as vehicle-free corridors for safe movement. I saw my first bald eagle nest and pacific fisher in the Marsh Roadless Area along Upper Klamath Lake in Oregon. I have seen meadows of spring wildflowers and hundreds of butterflies at Iron Mountain in the Echo Mountain Roadless Area. I have hiked many times through the quiet dunes at Tahkenitch Roadless Area to the vehicle-free beach at the end of the trail. I have watched American dippers singing at a snow-covered creek in the Maiden Peak Roadless Are. I have waded into the crystal clear waters of Betty Lake in the Waldo-Fuji Roadless Area. I have enjoyed spectacular views of the Methow Valley from the Liberty Bell Roadless Area. I have watched hawks migrating through the spectacular Pasayten Rim Roadless Area in the fall. Please do not make any changes to the 2001 Roadless Rule. Roadless Areas make America great!
