The Roadless Area Conservation Rule witholds 58.5 million acres of wild national forest land from access through roads. The rule was intended to allocate one third of our national forest land as a haven for hikers.

The National forests were zoned as perpetually unaccessible wilderness to all but a few who have the time and ability to hike many miles in order to visit them.

This is part of the Clinton/Gore legacy environmentalist extremism.
The anti-road rule puts preservation before conservation.

It was expected that Bush would overturn this bit of Clinton's extreme anti-conservationism immediatly but, in fact, he and his cabinet took some time in studying the rules and impacts before reversing a few of the more extreme rules.

The peple called foul when this rule was proposed and when it went in to effect and should praise those who would modify it today.

What good our forests without access?
