Short Description of Activity
Participated in the Love Your Wilderness Webinar
Reflection/Evaluation
Excellent, caused me to reevaluate projects I might have previously supported such as sheep guzzlers (and not just in wilderness areas). Do they bring in non-endemic species?
Good on issues of state versus federal supremacy, FLPMA
Wilderness not about recreation but about land protection. Question, doesn’t naming it a wilderness sometimes spur excessive interest from recreationalists who can love an area to detrimental outcomes?
