You can twist it any way you like. I will never ever agree that stacking rocks and destroying trails for self indulged gratification is right. I'm smart enough to know when to turn around when the trail gets too rough.seems you're missing your own point; it is absolutely true that the trails mentioned are for everyone, hence why people die out there every year.
nobody said just because they're for the public it's OK to go out there stupid, and that goes as much for when we're on 2 wheels as when we're on 4.
now it seems like you're just disqualifying yourself in multiple ways, not the least of which is that you started this thread specifically on the premise of disparaging others.
Too many of the motoring public think otherwise and that's why trails and riding/driving areas are closing. I have volunteered many hours of my time with both BLM and Forestry Service over the years to fix stupid trail behavior. Trash, erosion due to illegal off trail bypasses, cutting down living trees etc.
Rock stacking is just the newest version of destroying our trail systems. I assure you if a BLM or Forestry officer were to catch someone modifying it with rock stacking there are not going to be too happy.
As per BLM regulation: "Outdoor recreational activities are allowed on BLM land, with the stipulation that you leave the land the way you found it."
Anyone who has volunteered with the BLM or Forestry Service already knows this. Everyone else is simply uneducated. Coming on a forum and bragging about splitting rocks and chopping off living branches is a disservice to all of as who enjoy the trails.
