Something worth keeping an eye on and an ear open...
Sen. Kamala Harris and Rep. Jared Huffman (both D-Calif.) have introduced legislation, the Northwest California Wilderness, Recreation, and Working Forests Act, to expand or create a number of Wilderness areas and Wilderness Study Areas in northern California.
One of them would extend Wilderness over a trail called the South Fork National Recreation Trail. It’s possible that the legislation would close part or all of it to mountain biking.
If anyone who lives north of San Francisco and Sacramento has time to take a look at the proposed legislation, please let us know if anything in it would cause the loss of a trail.
Thanks!
