Please take a moment to listen to a voice that comes from the other side of this great country. As a child I always looked forward to the fishing trips that my father would take me on, and one of the places that used to bring a smile to my face just by the mention of the name was Little Deer Creek.

The times that were spent up on that small stream will always have a special place in my heart, but now the mention of the name just makes me think of the fence that was put up, keeping the public out of such a beautiful area.I moved to New Jersey four years ago, and I am still troubled every time I think about the way the land has been "banned" from the public. How can one person take away such great memories? I wonder if any other fences will be going up anytime soon.

Please, let Utah stay the way it is. The timeless saying, "If it isn't broken, don't fix it," surely must apply. Try to keep Utah the pristine place it is, not by putting up chain-link, but by letting the people love the land.
