I cannot attend this as we have classes on Wednesday evening, but would like some folks to go.

Way down southeast...it would have had nothing to do with AO thus any representation there would be merely to show concern for the trail systems, rather than any explanation or smoothing-over of the specific issues at hand. Nevertheless, show of concern is enough reason to be present. Why else would it be held in Fairbanks anyway?

Its a LARGE area East of Glenallen, all the way to the Canadian boarder. Here's the link:

Joe since we are avid offroaders and this is n issue with a trail system it has everything to do with us. I can't go to the meeting I have to work. I didn't realize we were allowed down in that area.

i spent a few hours south of tok, that area was great and worth an overnight trip if you want to explore a bit more of the big ak. might plan it on my way out if i go to haines. i'll see if can make it... BUT it sure would be nice to have my own AO shirt to wear there :whistle:
