<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We now have an opportunity to protect a unique 300
acre preserve on Moscow Mountain that includes a wonderful grove of ancient
cedar trees, the glorious viewpoint of on the rocky top of East Moscow Mountain,
and the forestland between those two sites. The Nature Conservancy lease
expires this year, and we need to preserve this land -- as a state park or
a county park -- for perpetuity.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Besides providing all of us, and our children, with
a great destination, designating this land as a park will help us solve some of
the most difficult outdoor recreation issues on the mountain. This new
park will focus both education and enforcement on the twin problems of
motorized eco-destruction and access.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Motorized land-destroying mud-boggers and ATV
drivers are ravaging Moscow Mountain, and the rest of the American West.
These machines chew trails into eroding ruts, and kill wildlife, trees and
streams. We have all seen meadows and creeks churned to moonscapes because
of these machines and their un-thinking drivers. Through this new
park on Moscow Mountain, maybe we can provide enough enforcement and education
to stop this destruction.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In addition, with a park there near the top of the
mountain, perhaps we will find the resources to resolve the access issue.
If the interest in visiting the new park increases, we will fix and maintain the
road system to make it possible for everyone to enjoy both the ride and the
destination.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We need to preserve this 300 acre as a
public park. Please help this effort. For more information, see <A
