Please help!
Don't know if you've heard about it this winter, but snow kiting within wilderness areas has been threatened in Oregon this winter. There is a group actively lobbying to BAN kiting on public lands and within wilderness areas. These people are motivated and organized.. so kiters must be the same.
If they are successful, the Ban will be FEDERAL and banning kiting from any Wilderness designated area in the US. We already have it banned in some national parks, like Yellowstone and Teton, which both offer AMAZING snowkite terrain. If we lose this one, it will set precedent and make it easy to establish other kite bans on public lands. We must stand together as the kiters of the whole world to fight this ban and establish access on public lands for kiters worldwide. The precedent must be set IN FAVOR of kiting!!
Please everyone sign it!!! And please spread this in all forums worldwide and send it to your e-mail contacts!
