With prices being raised all the time of course I'd bring my own reusable dishes. Just like my recycle bags I've used for over 10-12 years now. I try & do what's best for our earth. We all should.

We should all try to minimize using single use plastics and waste. Reuse people!

I sometimes already bring my own container for leftovers. Takeout containers are bulky, not airtight and wasteful.

Because of the disease germs on the container that get transferred to the table and seating. Ready to be picked up by the next person. And of course when that happens, who gets sued? Not the state !

I am a veteran with PTSD, I need a little extra help emotionally. Sometimes I dial 988 - the veteran's suicide hotline, and speak to someone who really cares. I get fantastic help at the Bend VA and their Community Cares partners. All supported by you, and received gratefully by so many in need. Thx

Why tf is this even a question… people who have sacrificed their mental health (at the very least) deserve free accessible mental health services.

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

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.

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.

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

"Your" already paying? Did you think the price of gas included admission to wherever "you're" going? How about Disneyland? "Your" already paying for the gas to go there so it should be free, right? Maybe if you fly they should pay you?

Just one more thing you have to pay for

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.
