I enjoyed this part.....

“While I realize that our OHV recreationists are understandably disappointed with this decision on Tellico, I want to reassure our OHV users that we are committed to maintaining other OHV trail opportunities on the National Forests in North Carolina which are located on more suitable sites” said Hilliard. Other national forest OHV trail systems in North Carolina include:

Wayehutta, Nantahala NF, 21 miles (21 miles ATV and motorcycle)
Brown Mountain, Pisgah NF, 34 miles (6 miles 4WD, 27 miles ATV, 34 miles motorcycle)
Badin Lake, Uwharrie NF, 16 miles (16 miles 4WD, ATV and motorcycle)
Black Swamp, Croatan NF, 8 miles (8 miles 4WD, ATV and motorcycle)

Awsome, in the state of NC they give us 30 whole miles of 4wd trails to ride on, and only 6 miles in the entire state set aside for just 4WD's.
