If not for the mining claims that must be provided continued access by law, Pleasant and South Park canyons may have been closed to all vehicle traffic by now. You can't have it both ways. Either support free access and thank the mining claims for it, or join the greenies and call for wilderness designation. Unfortunately, there probably isn't a compromise between the two extremes. Anyway, aren't there any recreationalists out there willing to admit that the Pleasant Canyon route, as opened up by the World Beater Mine crews, is a welcome improvement. Isn't easier access up the canyon without thrashing your vehicle worth eliminating the bottleneck at so-called "riparian zone"?
