Hayford Peak, NV (Ultra prominent) access threatened

Post by Teresa Gergen »

Access to one of the 57 Ultras in the contiguous US (5000 ft or more of prominence) is threatened by the Air Force. The land is currently a wildlife refuge. Please comment by the deadline of Dec 10, or at least sign the petition in the link below. Thank you.

Thank you for posting this. I luckily managed to get up there last week, and this area was much more beautiful than expected. Already submitted my comments a while back too.
