I fully appreciate your approach and wouldn't expect any land owner to give carte Blanche access to the public. My point is it's not your responsibility but rather the land's governing body it seems to me.
I surely agree with you!
All that land had plenty of access for over 100 years.
Then the USFS closed two roads used to access it.
They KNEW it was going to severely limit access.
They don't WANT you going in there. They accept that a few "back country hunters" will walk or pack in, but by and large, the area is closed to the public.
That philosophy of road closure has caught on like wildfire with the new management philosophies more recent management with USFS & BLM have.
