Earlier this year, I spoke about how recent Forest Service budget cuts are set to make public land use all the worse. How the trails we ride or use, how fire mitigation and seasonal workers would be affected by the nearly $750 million cut.
But based on a report from Outside, those budget cuts are going to affect snowmobilers and in the worst way possible. Say, goodbye, to some of your avalanche reports as the folks who put those together, along with avalanche mitigation, are all going to be affected by said cuts. And that just might mean more backcountry injuries or deaths.
Great work, Congress.
