What I do have a problem with is BHA's seeking of exclusive use of large chunks of the landscape where only their approved uses are allowed at the exclusion of pretty much everyone else.
C'mon Dave. The fact is, the vast majority of public lands are open to motorized use. If BHA wants to keep the current roadless areas roadless, that's not excluding "everyone else," because "everyone else" has unfettered motorized access to the vast majority of public lands. Maybe "everyone else" should be happy with motorized use of the vast majority of public lands, and quit whining about the small fraction they can't drive their vehicles through.
And there is no "exclusive use" of roadless lands. Anyone and everyone can use them. All they need is a willingness to get off their asses and walk a little.
