During this last weeks OHV "Green Sticker" grants funding meeting, the OHV commissioners once again displayed that their personal agenda got in the way of good judgement. The Eldorado National Forest submitted a grant request for trail maintenance and conservation in the amount of $100,000. Following the screening process by the OHV division, an amount of $65,000 was recommended by the OHV division using the competitive bidding process that is in place for the OHV grant cycle. That was in line with other similar grant applications. When this grant request was brought before the OHV commissioners, they gave ZERO funding. The Rock Creek OHV area is in the Georgetown Ranger district of the Eldorado National forest. This area has been a focal point of contention between the extremely pro-environmental groups and the OHV community.

all that volunteer activity at GT is for not? when it comes to Green sticker funds?

Screw the California OHV commission. Work at the grass roots level. Work with your USFS rangers and BLM rangers. God bless the federal Government.........If California owned these US forest service and BLM lands we would not be riding at all.

California is run by wannabe enviro nazis. So no wonder the State OHV commission is against us. YES we need to fight it there, but my main mission is be friendly and Love Your Local federal lands employee.

All of our volunteer work and having the Georgetown rangers finding ways to accomplish their goals without OHV grant funding is pissing off the extreme pro-environmental folks. Keep up the good work!

remember......these are psuedo environmental leaders getting their information from office chair bound for-profit populace extremeist alarmist view west coast media. Beware the Media Government complex of the blue states.

I am a graduate environmental engineer.....these modern day birkenstock wannabe berkely hippies and the left over leftist liberal arts majors of my generation are enviro - idiots. California is so squeaky clean.....the real environmental problems are in China, Mexico, Russia......all over the world they are trashing the environment.

Grass roots trail maintenance is a real environmental/conservation hands on movement here at home.
