Mt. Hood Summit III: “A Legacy for Mt. Hood”

 

Building on the momentum from the two previous Mt. Hood Summits and our recent bipartisan backpacking adventure around the Mountain on the Timberline Trail, we invite you to share your spoken and written comments on Saturday, December 3rd to help us shape the future of this Oregon treasure. We will present our Blueprint of Principles and Actions to address the concerns that have been raised throughout the years, including wilderness, watersheds, recreation, transportation, Native American rights, forest stewardship, and land exchanges. Your testimony will be important in finalizing bipartisan legislation and generating new ideas for future efforts, creating a Mt. Hood Legacy that endures.

Bump. I'm going if at all possible. It's nice to hear about the bipartisanship, and about the congressman actually hiking the Timberline trail.

 

75,000 new acres of protected land and 15 more miles of protected waterways sound good. That's assuming we have the money to protect it? Discuss.

 

Thanks for posting that, Winter!
