One of the very cheapest activities is maintaining trails, just the basics. Go look at any reports, Americorps crews cost relatively nothing in the scope of income and expenditures. But while Willamette National Forest tries to restrict access, out the other side of their mouth they've actually decommissioned numerous miles of trail over the years, including recently. That BS doesn't jive to me. I don't bother with any stinking permits, passes, or the self-entry pieces of trash at trailheads with broken pencils and Scantron bubbles, the data within that is only used against hikers access interests.
This.
