I know most of my environmentalist friends will criticize me severly for expressing this view, but I firmly believe that we no more designated wilderness areas in the USA. One of things I hate about designated wilderness areas is that it prohibits so many activities that I enjoy doing - not only geocaching but also mountain biking and driving my 4WD SUV. The recent removal of many geocaches in the Superstition Wilderness Area has solidified my opposition to the designation of more wilderness areas. I hope that other geocachers agree, because more wilderness areas mean fewer lands available for geocaching. Ken (a.k.a. Highpointer)
