Description:
This document begins by listing the ways in which private landowners have utilized motorized transport in the area in years past. These ways mostly involve the transportation of persons and materials via Jeep through what is now wilderness. It is assumed by the Forest Service that all such use within wilderness boundaries must henceforth be forbidden, and the rest of the memo suggests ways to accommodate the private landowners' needs without the use of motorized vehicles.
