Keep our forests OPEN

The Issue

The US Forest Service has closed all roads in the Deschutes National Forest, Ochoco National Forest, and Crooked River National Grassland unless they are posted OPEN on one of 13 confusing government maps. Maximum fine for traveling on a closed road is $5000. Our public lands are being taken away from their owners by a government department that is out of touch. Lets show them that we the people and not going to roll over and blindly accept these useless new closures. Contact the US Forest Service and let them know your opinions on these closures.
