The process of getting this done without the support of the Sierra Club or like organization is nearly impossible. I watched a documentary on mountain bikers in the northwest and their struggles to get land managers to listen to their story. I was not until they various small groups and individuals coalesced around a large well long established organized group that anything got done.

If this documentary, which was produced with Forest Service participation, is to be believed, there are 21 steps to get anything approved...including the NEPA process, which is mentioned prominently in this documentary.

Whoever takes this on better be well financed and connected. The individual has zero chance.
