Support Responsible 4-Wheeling

I am a member of many clubs and associations. Tread Lightly encourages responsible 4-wheeling. If we expect to be able to continue our sport, we must avoid driving off established 4WD roads and make a sincere effort to leave no sign that we even passed through. This way subsequent visitors will be able to enjoy the area in the same natural splendor that we found it in. The United Four Wheel Drive Association and Blue Ribbon Coalition help try to keep our trails open. An organized effort is necessary because there is a large group that feels that only those who are fit and healthy enough to walk in should be able to enjoy our natural splendors. The Land Use Network affords a forum for all recreational users to discuss land use issues. Join and support these organizations and take time to write letters and call the appropriate government officials and congressmen when you see a closure that you aren't in favor of.
