WHITEHALL -- Doug Abelin is used to holding his cards close to the vest. But when it came time for Abelin to sit across the table with eight others hoping to find common ground on the future manage ment of the Bureau of Land Management's portion of the contentious Whitetail-Pipestone area, he and everyone else tried a different strategy.

From Don:

I am seeing more comments from folks who are starting to wake up to what the
Extreme Environmental community has been doing.

Hopefully more people will start paying attention to what has been going on!!!

Hey folks,

Look, I am steadily getting great news from within United.

The most recent stats show a significant rate for growth since the Annual
Convention. This despite the Spetember 11th disaster and unstable economy.

After doing a fine job as Ad Coordinator for United's Voice Joyce
Hillson has past the job to Jim Anderson of the Montana Four Wheel Drive
Association. What is so positive about this, is Jim has done this sort of
thing professionally for years. This is old hat to him. Essentially, he is
an expert in the field.

_TPTrail Ride on Saturday, January 26th. We'll meet at 9am at County Market at the corner of Montana and Custer Ave. See the link below for a map.

There's a Cenex station for fuel, County Market for lunch, and McDonald's for breakfast all within walking distance.

As usual, prepare for snow and bring a few dollar bills for the winch-fund! Tow-hooks required.

Please let me know if you plan on attending. We haven't decided where we're going to find fun yet, but we'll know when we get there and we're taking suggestions.
