dinneR ★ Posted September 19, 2018 Share #1 Posted September 19, 2018 So much attention is paid to National Parks, but National Forest land has a lot to offer. I spend more time in NF than NP land. I can reach a trailhead just one block from my apt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razors Edge ★ Posted September 19, 2018 Share #2 Posted September 19, 2018 National Forests are great. We have the huge George Washington and Jefferson National Forest relatively nearby, and it is fabulous. Semi-protected wilderness is probably the greatest national resource and treasure a nation can have. Sadly, a classification of National Forest means relatively little when land destruction is shown to be valuable enough to supplant the dozen or so folks who will complain when a field, valley, or mountain is stripped clean.

Kzoo Posted September 19, 2018 Share #23 Posted September 19, 2018 Yeah 1995 they ran off to Baltimore. You started this by mentioning Byner best known for The Fumble. Handoff left side. Sidesteps left. Gets into the end zone. Problem - 44 left the ball on the 1 yard line. 33-38 Denver. One of the best games evarrrr... #herewegosteelers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dottleshead ★ Posted September 21, 2018 Share #28 Posted September 21, 2018 There have been so many wild fires in the West the last few years it's getting alarming. The West watches their states go up in flames while the East watches their cities and towns get ripped apart and flooded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
