Default Across the Rubicon - Movie

Hummers on the Rubicon Movie

The movie is finished. And we can’t wait for you all to get a chance to watch it. But there is something we would like you to do for us...

The Rubicon Trail is in serious danger of being closed. Year after year battles are won and lost. Currently the trail is open, due in part the the Rubicon Trail Foundation. www.rubicontrail.org

For generations it has been considered one of America's toughest 4-wheel drive trails. Combined with the incredible natural beauty of the northern California's high sierras, its lakes, streams and rugged granite terrain, The Rubicon is considered the Crown Jewel of all 4-wheel drive trails. Many travel from all over the world to experience it.

The Rubicon Trail Foundation, and all of its members, works tirelessly educating the public about the Rubicon trail. They work with local state and federal governing bodies to keep it open, maintained, and accessible to all. This is not easy nor inexpensive. It takes hundreds of volunteer man hours a year, to maintain, clean and educate users.

In exchange for a $15 donation to The Rubicon Trail Foundation, you will receive the 30 minute, full-length edition of “Across the Rubicon”. Name:  x-click-but21.gif

EDIT: This link will take you to The Rubicon Trail Foundations donation page.

EDIT: You will receive a beautifully packaged DVD, and an additional audio CD.
All printing, packaging, mailing and production cost will be paid by me, as my personal donation to the Rubicon Trail Foundation.



PM me (HummBebe) your Pay Pal receipt, along with your mailing address, and I will mail it to you at no additional cost.

Thanks everybody, it’s for a great cause.

So here is a 5 min.version sneak peak.

I'm sending $15 to Sen. Allen. Does that count?

Nice music. Very original.

Those users do take a lot of cleaning

I wish it wasn't so far away. But it is a good cause for me still. I intend to make the trip one day and it may be too late by then.

Thank you so much! It is a great cause.

Since HUMMER/GM uses the Rubicon to test their vehicles, it makes sense that HUMMER owners would be able to help too.

HUMMER/GM has donated quite a bit of money and materials, gloves flashlights, rain poncho's etc., to assist the Rubicon Trail Foundation in their work weekends. They even donated 6 of their marketing people for a work weekend this last August, and a few thousand $ for the party afterwards.

We are so new as a brand to the land use issue scene, but there are so many areas in the country where public land is at the risk of being lost forever. Moab, Colorado, and Texas have all lost land recently.

Since we use it, we need to help protect it.

Thanks again for all those who have shown support!

Excellent cause, thanks to all for participating. The whole Country is paying attention to what happens to the 'Con, so it is imperative we all make sure it stays open, and set the example that will be used to keep trails all over the US from closing!

Thanks Bebe!!

Land use issues don't go away if we ignore them, the land goes away...

Help us save the Rubicon, lets show them that HUMMER owners care and want to be involved.

No matter what, roads and trails WILL BE CLOSED. It just matters how bad and how many. El Dorado National Forest has 3,172 miles of roads and OHV trails. Alternative D would cut that figure to 1,299 miles.

Environmentalists ask federal judge to overturn Bush forest rules

TERENCE CHEA

Associated Press 11/3/06

SAN FRANCISCO - Environmentalists asked a federal judge Wednesday to overturn the Bush administration's rules for managing the country's 155 national forests, arguing that the regulations illegally weaken protections for wilderness and wildlife.
Issued in December 2004, the rules represented a major shift in how the government balanced conservation and commercial interests in its 192 million acres of forest land. The management plan gave regional forest managers more discretion to approve logging, drilling and other projects without lengthy environmental studies.
Wednesday's hearing in federal court in San Francisco was the first since a coalition of environmental groups sued the Bush administration over the changes in February 2005, a month after they took effect.
Lawyers for the environmentalists told U.S. District Court Judge Phyllis Hamilton that the rules do not include the safeguards for endangered wildlife and forests that federal law requires. The rules allowed forest management plans to be revised without environmental studies and repealed a requirement for forests to maintain "viable" populations of native wildlife.
They also argued that the administration failed to study adequately the environmental impact of changing forest management practices and did not give the public enough opportunity to comment on the revisions.
"The government must involve the public when it radically changes the management standards of our forests," said Peter Frost, an attorney for the environmental groups, Defenders of Wildlife, Sierra Club, the Wilderness Society, and Vermont Natural Resources Council.
Administration officials said the rules allow forest managers to respond more quickly to wildfires, invasive species and other emerging threats. The change shortened the time to get revisions made from as many as nine years to as few as two or three.
In court Wednesday, Cynthia Huber, a Justice Department attorney, defended the Bush forest rules. She said the administration provided 90 days of public comment when it issued its draft proposal to overhaul forest management rules in December 2002.
Huber also argued that environmental studies should only be required for specific projects that could impact forests and wildlife, not when management plans are revised.
The plan "definitely does not undermine protections of the forests" and complies with federal environmental laws, Huber said.
Judge Hamilton did not indicate when she might rule.
The lawsuit is one of several ongoing legal challenges to Bush administration policies for overseeing national forests.
Twenty environmental groups and four states sued the U.S. Forest Service last October when it repealed the "Roadless Rule," a Clinton-era ban on road construction in nearly a third of the nation's forests. In September, a federal judge reinstated the ban, ruling the agency failed to conduct necessary environmental studies before making the change.
