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?

Definition of wilderness : a tract or region uncultivated and uninhabited by human beings. When too many humans occupy an area it ceases to be wilderness.

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

Latterdaysaint

Your already paying for high gas prices to get there

Just one more thing you have to pay for

Duane Wyman

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

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

Right now everyone is struggling and they make atleast 2x as much a year than I do. And many other residents of deschutes Co Maybe if they struggle some they might fight for what the people need.

I guess the money they got from Thornburgh wasn't enough. Or maybe they think they deserve a reward for the fine job they think they did in selecting Cheyenne Purrington.
