Access to Yosemite
- Share via
“Honk if You Love Yosemite” by Peter H. King (March 5) was wonderful! I’m a geology instructor, and it was so great to see someone give voice to the need to have the “common” people be able to view Yosemite. Each year I try to open the eyes of students to these natural wonders. It is heartbreaking to me to have so many areas closed off except for the “few” that are extremely physically fit. This is happening all over the West right now and we have to give voice to these closings!
There needs to be balance between are right to use and the right to abuse our natural wonders. Closing them off, complex reservations systems or making it too expensive for a family to even see these wonders are wrong.
