Alright, the writer of the article is obviously an idiot, I agree that the few idiots who do this kind of damage should be punished completely and have there rigs confiscated, but reading that article is just frustrating, he basically calls anyone with a big truck or lifted jeep/yota/whatever a jackass. I admit I have done my fair share of wheeling in places that I am not allowed, but at the same time Ive never done any serious damage anywhere. We really are running out of places to wheel in the area legally.
Off-road enthusiasts are in a similar position as animals, almost, as the land we have always wheeled slowly pushes us out via the long arm of the state, we are forced into smaller and smaller areas, and eventually, to prevent our desire to wheel from killing us we may sneak off somewhere we aren't supposed to... Lol. Not excusing the damage at all, especially to a place that actually lets people wheel in limited areas. Just saying that we all want more space to wheel and it would be damn nice to have it.
