Visiting Sand Dunes

* Re “Off-Road Vehicles Banned to Protect Desert Plant,” Oct. 24: Well, it’s happened again. While law-abiding, hard-working, desert-loving Americans were looking the other way, the environmental extremists have infringed upon our freedoms again. Our family has enjoyed the sand dunes near Glamis for 20 years. We often pack a lunch in our backpacks and take a daylong ride to the far reaches of the immense dunes. There is absolutely no way to see this beautiful area without off-road vehicles. We do not abuse the dunes. The environmentalists think any use is abuse.
I call upon the BLM to come up with an equitable plan that reins in the extremists and allows us to use and enjoy the open spaces that belong to all Americans.
