Subject: Legacy Roads & Trails Support Letter

Greetings BCHI Members

I am writing about a key Forest Service program for which we advocate, the Legacy Roads & Trails Remediation program that provides important funding for the maintenance and improvement of roads and trails, as well as helping address watershed impacts from problem roads.

Last year Phil Ryan signed Backcountry Horsemen onto a letter sent to the Idaho Congressional delegation asking for specific appropriations for the Legacy program, (see attached) and I am writing in hopes that you can sign onto this year’s letter, which will be ready in early February.

Also attached is a fact sheet that gives a brief explanation of the program and its accomplishments.

We hope to submit the letter in early March, and I wanted to allow enough time for your consideration.

Please let me know if I can send you the letter, or answer any  questions you may have.

Thank you,
