Maybe less rowdy people and wild kids running around ruining the peace and quiet.

I don't want to plan ahead that much - prefer the spontaneous outings.

Marcus Ainsworth

so we need a permit to walk in the woods now. What's next?

Duane Wyman

Your question really needs to address wilderness camping as that activity impacts greatly the wilderness landscape. Day, permits, visits are far less destructive to the Three Sisters Wilderness and easier to obtain.

I'll go out just somewhere else.

We already pay taxes on this land and this adds a spontanious barrier to access. Loicals should be able to go and hike anytime anywhere. Permits can be for visitors

Your already paying for high gas prices to get there

Duane Wyman

Dude, try to hike the Wonderland Trail at MRNP. It is a lottery for dates - good luck.

Duane Wyman

It is enforced to preserve the overall wilderness experience to benefit all who recreate and obtain a wild connection to Nature.

Just one more thing you have to pay for

We need that money in our own country to help our schools, Medicare and education. Don’t you care about our neighbors and communities?

Dave

That money won't help our neighbors and schools when Iranian nukes start hitting our allies and eventually us! That is their goal as they have stated for years!!

Ka San

If it even needs saying, the Military Industrial Complex is the MOST bloated budget of the entire federal budget. If our current "completely-in-over-his-head" Def Sec + idiot prez hadn't started a completely unnecessary war, we would not have depleted stores of weapons and this be on nobody's radar!

Dave

Ka San, You sound like a radical liberal. Guess you'd rather have nukes start flying around in the middle east and then closer to home in a couple years.
