Uwharrie is in region 8. This could be the end if we don't stay on the frigging designated trails!! It's a step by step way to get high impact use out of the forest.

Moderator censorship is real. I am a member of BCHUwharrie and the policy of not allowing public comments and a true discussion is one of the many reasons I am wary of the organization. ANY differing opinion is seen as bashing..OG post had commenting turned off, then removed completely and commenting on a 'POLL' replaces their request for why the decline in membership. Good thing i know how to screenshot it! Forr the record I am 'for' open and honest communication. Update: see my survey reply in the comments below...

If riders don't stop complaining about how 'unsafe' they feel and are 'scared' to ride or camp with people we will all suffer..

STATED FOR THE RECORD. I am not afraid or believe it's unsafe for a competent rider/horse combo to be out there on public lands with multiple user groups.

This campaign of complaining is working against equestrians in North Carolina. I am now seeing these complaints and 'concerns' affecting us in a negative way.

We should be educating horses and riders about what they may encounter and the fact that horse/hike or bike/hike is NOT adding miles but restricting our use.
