We're loving the wilderness to death and something needs to be done about overuse and trashing special places!

It is the same old thing, a few spoil it for the many. As we allow more people to move into our area the more trash and crime come along with them. There is less respect for everything lately.

Steve Scarich

Something needs to be done to re-distribute the volume to specific trailheads. I would rather have seen the FS actively encourage users to head to other sites, though.

Go after the folks who trash the wilderness but don't limit the numbers of those who respect the land and follow the rules!

Just another sign that Bend, (CO) is changing for the worst. Bend spent years trying to get people to move here, well...they got their wish.

Again Dem's punish the one's who repect the land.

I love our wilderness. I don't want the government restricting my access.

More passes, rules, regulations, and reservations are making it harder to go out on a hike or head out, hiking/camping, on a whim. A permit/reservation is making spontaneity a thing of the past

Do you support the City of Bend's plan to cut the 'Dirt World' homeless camp in half?

I don’t support the idea of a community living within my community that doesn’t have to abide by the laws and litters carelessly. Along with supporting a community that isn’t contributing to ours in any positive manner, using up costly resources.

If I had any say in the matter at all, it would be.... If a person doesn't want to put any effort into improving there life, I don't want a single cent of this communities tax dollars going to help them. Its an absolute waste! Those people just wanna do drugs and avoid any of life's responsibilities
