Thank you, Mr. President.  From the article, the Antiquities act has been used over 150 times by 16 Presidents and has never been overturned.  Let's hope the same common sense prevails.

I notice that there are folks less than happy with Gold Butte NM (not me) and threatening armaments.  Lovely.

Yep-that's true!  Maybe it's time to do what we talk about all the time here and fight or at least write a letter to support our use out on those Public Lands-I mean they belong to us not only to the big oil, big timber, or big cow, -----Happy new year ya all :D ! Sorry 'bout the political talk-but a new year is here and if we don't do something these lands could be gone!

...I've kept a Google alert on the Oregon/Bundy episode for a year now.  It just warmed up again.  Dunno what this bodes, if anything, but it leaves me feeling uneasy.

 

And yes, Smoke, I'm with you.

Our friend Jim Boone has worked tirelessly the last couple of years to to get this designation for Gold Butte. Jim, the President, and many many others deserve our heartfelt thanks for their hard work. Thank you! A wonderful end to the holidays for us! :)

Congrats to Mr. Bird & Hike!  His extensive knowledge, which he generously shares on his website, certainly makes him an expert on the area.
