Reopening of Entiat River road

[Skyvalhunter]

For those of you who have an interest in trying to get the Entiat River road opened before the scheduled 3 year time frame(closed since the Duncan Fire). This leads up to the Cottonwood trailhead at the end of the road. The USFS said the road is a dangerous alluvial deposit that could slideand now they are adding debris to thier reason
  Contact Janet Flanagan jflanagan@fs.fed.us    phone (509) 784-4700 at let her know of your interest in getting to the Cottonwood trailhead. Let her hear from you, we need to show alot of interest to get it opened before 3 years.

The USFS will always come up with "reasons" not to have employees that do "Hard work"

They love "paper pushers" over "laborer's"  AND go "bonkers" if they can abandon or destroy roads!

Dumb....open the road and stop making excuses.  They did this same thing in Snohomish county years ago.  Simple fixes that would take a crew less than a weeks worth of work took years. 

For those who say keep it close.....Why??

  jrebel, the key words are "crew" and "Work"   

You have to go back a few decades to FIND those types anymore!  The "greenies" have pretty much done them in as "employees"!

Engineers flagged the roads out, Loggers built them to get to the timber, maintained them while sales were active.  ALL the USFS had to do afterwards, was to keep the culverts unplugged and repair wash outs or remove downed timber.

They did a great job of it for quite a few years, then the Sierra Club was formed, the rest is history along with miles and miles of great roads!!

That's the short version!! and to the point!

The Sierra Club was formed in the 1800's.

Leave it closed......

Why do you say that?

When it says closed, it is closed to everyone, from what I hear no foot traffic either. That cuts off access to a great hunting drainage.

TRUE Knocker, but The hippie, commie scumbags didn't show up until  late 60's to early 70's.  They were still logging the MBSNF (at that time separate  MBNF/SNF) up until the early to mid 80's

"The Sierra Club was formed in the 1800's."

Maybe so, BUT they were "radicalized"(by attorneys)by the late 60's early 70's!
