Re: [RC] wolves and end of arguement here - heidi

Unfortunately, the lynx hair "issue" was an attempt at biologists to
ensure  that the lab they were running their hair samples through had
the ability to  discern between lynx and bobcat hair, not an attempt to
falsely prove that lynx  are actually living in the Gifford Pinchot
National Forest.

That sure isn't my understanding of the issue--there was an outright
maneuver to close an area of GPNF because of the alleged lynx there.

since current WDFW policy is to deport wolves back to
Idaho, ironically.

That truly is ironic--we'd like to deport them back to Canada from whence
they actually came, quite frankly.

The very essence of our sport is doing the trail as quickly as practicable,
while keeping one's horse fit to continue.  Taking the clock out of the
equation makes it another sport altogether.  The challenge is how to keep
the sport what it is while honing our skills (both as riders and as those
in control roles) in detecting where "the edge" is for each horse so that
we don't cross it.
