Short Description of Activity
Attended GMUG Open House re: working draft to give input on many aspects of the plan but especially wilderness designations and the conservation coalition-proposed Community Conservation Proposal.
Reflection/Evaluation
Our members worked the room to speak to as many USFS personnel as possible. Some conversations included: proposed veg treatment on Baldy (which coalition has recommended as addition to Uncompahgre Wilderness; Bighorn sheep overlap with domestic sheep!!, landscapes along 550 near Red Mtn Pass formerly Uncompahgre Primitive Area (Bear Creek, Hayden, Abrams/Brown) and therefore not analyzed during Roadless assessment and fell through the cracks – now with no protection.
