I just finished reading the "Losing it All" article by Vernon Felton in the latest Bike Mag. I think Patrick Seidler, president of WTB is a hero of the MTB community. I didn't realise how bad the trail closure situation really is until I read Vernon's article, I mean, here in SC there isn't really a problem. I think I'm am going to write Patrick a letter of appreciation, and I'm gonna buy some WTB stuff when I get money.
