For guys from the east, this may be hard to really understand: this area is like a small state! Literally, compared to anywhere I've wheeled (which isn't everywhere but still lots of places) it's huge and OPEN. You can get lost there and die before you can walk out. Most (all) parks I've been to are so small that you can walk out in an hour or less from any one point. You drive past JV for miles on the highway.
Cultural significance for offroadding? Where do you start? It may be the birthplace of hard core rock crawling. I know there is lots of arguing to do about that statement but a lot of cool stuff has been developed to run those trails.
No matter where you are, this has something to do with you if you care about spending time in the dirt.
I feel like we've done the easy part on this. Everyone that's looking to help the effort has. We all have to reach out to the people that are not active and should care. Everyone that's signed this needs to make sure someone else signs it and tell them why it's important. And everyone that's heavily invested in JV needs to sign petitions and help write letters for places around the country. I feel like I lost something special when Tellico disappeared and probably could have done more to help even if I never go there.

183,000 acres of off road access. No limits as to travel or what can be used. Don't remember what the final amount of take they want. I know it's not all. But is a majority of the area.
I think I read they want to take 141,000 acres
It's gone up and down depending on the study.
This area is also where I got my email name from. When the group I rode with and practiced in the desert with spent a day out there, nobody wanted to lead. Too easy to get lost. So somebody would say "put the KTM out front". I was a surveyor and had a wicked sence of direction. And I had been riding out there starting in 1971. On a bonanza mini bike.

Bringing this up to the top, I was #302
What's your number.
It doesn't matter if you will never wheel there, this is our land that we get to use. If we loose this it sets the stage for more closures down the road. If we show that we are going to fight tooth and nail for our rights to use our public lands responsibly we will be better off in the future.
I remember the Tellico deal well, I did the not in my back yard, I will get to that later deal until later happened to not exist. I am embarrassed to say that I was one of the ones that sat by and watched that area get closed because I was going to do something tomorrow.
Don't wait till tomorrow, because there may not be anything to fight for.
