Which do you believe should take priority?
There is no tourist created substantial damage being done to Yosemite. The idea that it "needs to be saved" from bicycle vendors is ludicrous. Especially when you have a $400 a night Hotel there and a Golf Course up in Wawona.
You wanna see ABUSE?? Go find pictures of the Half Dome FIREFALL that used to take place. Where the Glacier Point Hotel used to toss a dumpster size load of hot coals off the face to entertain folks in the Valley on summer nights.. THAT was abuse for amusement only.. Or pictures of the hole in giant redwoods that you could drive a wagon thru..
Everything else is the cost of making nature ACCESSIBLE to the widest spectrum of folks possible.
We've gotten better. SO GOOD --- that even ardent environmentalists can weigh the "costs".
Well, that's interesting, particularly as I never said anything about "saving it from bicycles vendors". But you go right ahead and create your red herrings. We are used to it. Fireballs at half dome? So I guess the local wildlife did that, not the tourists, eh?
LOL red herring, red herring!
Only one poster here cries "red herring' and then does that very thing in the same post...
LOL, moron... like I told neuman a while back.. If you claim "red herring" it should either stand on it's own, as if it is obvious. OR you should follow it with an explanation of that claim and/or the previous claim you are referring to. If you just make your own red herring right after it just draws attention to your own ignorance...
