While I take your point, public lands should be open to the public to use, if you have ever spent much time on BLM and Bureau of Reclamation lands in the western US you can certainly understand why there may be some movement to limit the use...folks are nasty idiots who are convinced those lands are a good place to dump their trash, leave junk cars, live for months on end in dilapidated RVs etc. If people would treat those lands like the natural treasure they are instead of a landfill and free RV park there would be less regulation. It is frustrating to find more and more of our property off limits to us but the people who use those lands largely do not appreciate them and treat them like crap. The only thing that keeps them remotely pristine is their remote nature...the closer to town, the worse they are treated.

Then the remaining trails are used even more, then the BLM says they are over-used and close those too.

It's not just MOAB. Look at the use (abuse) of Wilderness and Monument designations. Those immediately remove motorized access (and i think others as well).

You are correct, people abuse public lands and should be punished but continually closing areas does a dis-service to the users.

In perusing some of the environmental groups, they don't like motorized access... period. And this administration listens to them.
