All I have to say is thank you Senate!.  Im glad we all can voice our free speech opionions.
I think alot of folks are missing something here... I understand irresponsible people tear up terrain with ATVs.
But, it can be equally stated that aircraft tear up sand bars and pollute the pristine air in the back country, not to mention how many of them are laying in the back country as wrecks. How many times have pilots spilled oil or fuel on the ground to fly off without digging it up and hauling it out? Same goes with boats.. I cant tell you how many times Ive been out and heard airboats and river boats screaming up and down the rivers.. sounds like a speedway out there.. Oh dont mention how many fish and animals are killed by fuel and oil put into these waterways..  Anyways point is, we all dammage the environment in some way..  I can immagine back in the early days, folks with out horses complained that people with horses tore up the land.. Ide like to see how many folks could build those cabins way back in the middle of no where with out the use of snow machines, track vehicles, aircraft, boats or ATVs.. Lets all act responsibly and use what god has granted us to use, but lets do it without feeling that your method of hunting or accessing hunting areas is the correct one.  We should all worry more about our own  actions than the actions of others. If we all act responsible we wouldnt have to have this conversation.

Good hunting to all... However you do it.
