Preserving Public Access to Public Lands...

Here is an inspiring article about a family who has worked hard for 25 years to save public access to a beautiful pass in Colorado.  I traveled over Ophir Pass in 2002 after visiting the Paonia Rally.  High and Rocky, it was relatively easy for me on my R1100GS.

Imagine the dedication and love of the land:  You spend your family's time and money to buy mining claims and lands and then donate it to the Forest Service so that it will forever be open to all recreation.  My hat is off to these people.
