ADVOCACY & POLICY
The Bridger-Teton National Forest is undergoing a Forest Plan Revision. This 2-3 year process will either positively or negatively impact recreation on our public lands. This process looks at the entire 3.4 million acres of Forest, forces land managers to evaluate current use, and develops a plan to fit current trends and the next 30-40 years. AMPL is participating in collaborative working groups, meeting with land managers, organizing with other nonprofits, and relying on our recreational community to help shape the future of public land use and ensure a bright future for multi-use recreation.

Submitting a Public Comment
Your voice is important for shaping the future of our public lands. All major decisions regarding access, recreation, and land-use are made after periods open for public comment. By law, government agencies are required to review these public comments and consider them in making their final decisions. It is important to speak up with a clear, factual voice in order to make change and have your voice heard. Be sure to sign up for AMPL's newsletter to be informed when it is time to speak up for multi-use recreation.
