This happened several months ago. But it's a good reminder of what the tree huggers are capable of.

Subject: WARNING!
Message: This comes to us from Terry Rust.

Please spread this far and wide, I have had instances of booby traps in the Jemez but so far only nonlethal anti tire types, looks like the stakes are being raised.

Terry

This is from the web page of the Pacific NW 4 Wheel Drive Association.

Information from the BLM on a pipe bomb that was found at a gate. We have gotten more details. It was an 8-inch long, 2-inch diameter heavy-schedule PVC pipe. It was attached to a Swanson gate in Douglas County. When the bomb squad sprayed it with a water canon, it exploded. It had a mercury switch inside that detonated with movement.

In addition, a small, gunpowder-filled bomb with a fuse was found in Clackamas County. It was made out of PVC also, with two caps threaded onto a double-ended female connector.

If you see something that doesn't look right, leave it alone. Nothing more then terrorism being used to push a very radical agenda. Don't become a victim. Be alert. Pass this on to your riding buddies.

I have family in the Northwest in the Puget Sound, I can see that happening. Just not here in Texas You have better chances of getting shot while tresspassing on someone's land before some hippy tries to blow you up
