SRP has us pretty busy, So I can only hit a couple of these in the Ridgecrest district

Our main battle via comments is travel on marked trails only is simply not
hold merit, there are too many confusing checkerboard private sections
in the CDD that cannot be either marked or enforced correctly per that rule

Other than that, if you know of a trail you lost the last go around that has historic
value, try to amend it in to the new plan ASAP via comments or attend meeting
in your area of interest
