ATV's and Motorcycles to be allowed on the El Camino

Post by RedRoxx44 »

Title says it all. I think it sucks. However not sure how they were kept out this long. Note at Cabeza Prieta wildlife refuge they supposedly have only 5 people that can help with policing that area and will count on the border patrol to help. Can anyone say "jurisdiction??" . Can't wait for the noise, the accidents that will happen, and probably the tracks out in the desert. Although I must say since the border patrol presence is greater I have found more tracks in the desert off the road than I saw before any semi permanent presence was out there. :(

Starts this summer, after the pronghorn breeding season ban on vehicles is over.

Just another tragedy allowing all the ATV cowboys and yahoos into that wilderness.

It'll be trashed in no time at all :(
