The comment

As an avid outdoors person, I oppose rescinding to roadless area conservation rule. These places of wilderness remain rare, and once they are opened to development the damage cannot be undone. I specifically use the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest for horse camping and hiking. I also go fishing, camping and canoeing deep in the Boundary Waters. The roadless area conservation rule protects those activities and provides tourism livelihood for thousands of people living adjacent to these areas. Rescinding the roadless conservation rule only benefits corporations and millionaires, not the American people for whom the land is held in trust.

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