Such a reversible and minor issue. What they did was wrong but it was out of pure ignorance not malice. If/when someone were to have been vocal to leave it in place... I'm sure Save Our Canyons et al would have made some noise.

Of bigger issue, the impact the non permitted Rainbow Family is having on public lands. 4x4 club wants to host an event on public lands, get a time consuming and costly permit. Want to have 20k free loaders on public lands, cater to them.

I smell possible arguable precedent, Kurt.

I totally agree. It seems like when there are a large quantity of people involved, Rainbow, Bundy, Paria, etc. the BLM backs down. The BLM has a police force and the County Sheriff has some jurisdiction so it is not because of a lack of force that they back down it is a lack of will.

What happened to treat every one the same and the rule of law. It reminds me more of the English nobility system, what ever the King says is law.
