I am young and fit enough to hoof it in and out of roadless/non-motorized areas, but there are many who cannot. And someday I will be one of those who cant hike 5-10+ miles in a day. One of the best things about hunting is sharing those experiences with your hunting buddies, and for me its those who taught me to hunt 20 some years ago and no longer can walk like they used to. Restrictions on motor vehicle travel limits those that can access public land, and that is not what public lands should be about. But also I don't think we should be building a bunch of new roads throughout the grasslands either.Awhile back the USFS wanted to eliminate many hundreds of miles motorized trails throughout the badlands. While it may sound good on the outside, their little proposal would have cut off access to a lot of public land for many  people. Few would have benefited. A lot of my family and friends commented on the proposal, urging them not to. We are still hunting the lands together that we have hunted for many decades.<a href="http://www.grandforksherald.com/news/2134220-travel-plan-little-missouri-grasslands-warrants-closer-look" target="_blank">http://www.grandforksherald.com/news/2134220-travel-plan-little-missouri-grasslands-warrants-closer-look</a>- - - Updated - - -And there is also that!</blockquote>
