    fletchera@aspen.uml.edu asks whether mountain bikes should be allowed everywhere. Most rec.backcountry posters feel that mountain bikes
    should not be allowed in designated wilderness in North America.

    I have another question that I haven't seen discussed before.
    Should paragliding be allowed in national parks or designated
    wilderness?

    Currently it is prohibited. This doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Paragliding has less impact on the landscape than hiking. It has a
    visual impact when you see a paraglider flying overhead, but it is
    little different than seeing a tent or another hiker, and much more
    rare.

    I am interested in your opinion. Feel free to post or send me mail.
