The USHPA just sent out an e-mail notification that states:
"The Salmon-Challis National Forest in Idaho, which includes the King Mountain flying site, is revising its forest management plan. The new plan will recommend that certain areas be designated as wilderness and will guide resource management for the next 15 years.
King Mountain, a H4/P4 site, is located within the wilderness evaluation area. If the mountain were to be designated as a wilderness area, roads to launch would be closed and launching would be prohibited, likely ending pilots' access to the site."
If you aren't a USPHA member you can also visit 'The Oz Report'. Scroll down a few posts to find the information and links on how to add your comments to the Forest Service on the proposal. The deadline for comments is tomorrow, January 19th.
