I'll be donating my time and money to keep access to the strips, but not to change the monument status. There are plenty of examplesaround the west of continued, respectful access for aircraft despite the designation of public land changing.

And that's totally cool. But there are folks who don't ride horseback, mountain bike, backpack and/or fly planes. Hope they can continue to have equal access too.

It seems like this is a lot more impactful to backcountry flying than the recent National Monument designations.
