The Outspoken Sportsman

  The U.P. Trail Riders Association   

   needs our support! 


The MDNR has closed down three horse camps built by the Michigan Trail Riders Association, which I might add were built at no cost to the MDNR.  Now the MDNR has locked out the MTRA folks with the gates that were built by the MTRA members themselves! 

Now they are trying to stop the riders from riding in the Pigeon River State Forest near Vanderbilt.  The Pigeon River area covers about 95,000 acres, so you can see what they're up against!  


"We have to get proactive in the U.P. to keep on top of what the MDNR is doing to the horse people down state.  That's why the U.P. Trail Riders Association has been formed", says Norm Seppi.  

"We have joined forces with the U.P. Sport Alliance,

which has over 12,000 members U.P. wide."   

DNR has forgotten that this is OUR land, not MDNR's land! 


"We've had several people join our association that are

not even horseman!  They are simply so disgusted

with the way DNR has treated the citizens

of the state of Michigan that

non-riders are joining and offering their support!"   


If you'd like to join the U.P. Trail Riders Association  

membership is free at this time.
