We were portrayed as having complete and total access to national parks, and that's just not true. We are already regulated. As long as they achieve some management objective, regulation is fine.

This is total lunacy. It is absolutely not true.

This absurd conclusion demonstrates that this action is driven by politics, not on-the-ground facts. It also ignores the real strides the snowmobile manufacturers have made in recent years to create cleaner and quieter machines.

We hope there is happy medium, but I'm not sure.

We expect to prove that the studies on which the Clinton administration based its ban were flawed and highly prejudiced. What's more, in the previous decision-making process, the public was prevented from participating as fully as the law allows. The agreement helps ensure that that won't happen this time around.

...it is disquieting to feel that the conversion into a National Forest or Park always means the esthetic death of a piece of wild country.
