Public Lands and the Government Shutdown
ParkChat

Q3: From backcountry permits to campground reservations, some outdoor adventure planning is on hold right now. What are you doing in the meantime to make sure you can still #optoutside this year? #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3: Welp, in Texas we don't have a *ton* of federal land anyway, so I'm continuing my journey to local and state parks. State parks are gems. #ParkChat

A3: We're planning as if we are going to be visiting a lot of National Parks in the coming months. Hopefully that isn't a mistake, but we adapt quickly. #ParkChat #GovernmentShutdown https://t.co/ctbuQjNh6k

A3. We’ve had luck speaking to concessionaires within or just outside the park to aid in planning. Otherwise, just crossing fingers the madness ends soon. #ParkChat

A3: I run on a nearly daily basis, but living in Japan my interaction with U.S. public lands is VERY different. #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3) Planning our grand summer adventure! @BlackCanyonNPS anyone? Or maybe @GulfIslandsNPS? Decisions, decisions . . . #ParkChat


replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3 We can head up to Caprock Canyons SP for a touch of wildness. That's the closest state park to me (and is my dearly beloved park anyway) #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3: Stay local and plan on visiting State Parks. #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr A3. For us it’s more difficult to plan as we may need to use the trip savings for every day life if the shutdown continues #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3) Actually the cold & rainy weather has kept me inside & avoiding driving on the roads with inexpensive drivers. #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3 I've been spending a lot of time at local/state parks. #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3. I'm looking at traveling to areas with significant state lands. None of my plans are firm at this point. #parkchat

A3 We made excellent use of @CusterStatePark while in the #BlackHills. There’s a lot of outside left to see. #parkchat #govermentshutdown


A3. We're heading to state parks; in fact, we're considering a @rscottjones style quest to visit all of Washington's state parks! #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3. State parks in California and Arizona is the alternate plan. I’m still planning trips to federal lands for the year - luckily also baseball will still be played #ParkChat

A3) We're making more plans and backup plans for state and local parks, throughout 2019 and 2020. #parkchat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3. Well, my idea of opting outside in winter is skiing and some snowshoeing, so I am ok there. #parkchat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3) We've been staying local and visiting parks and the beach. A bit of a bummer as we had federal public lands visits planned and we are only out here for a short period of time and may not get to see them. #parkchat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3. I am using State Parks and County Parks while I wait out the Federal shutdown. Luckily, @CAStateParks have some amazing #OptOutside opportunities and continue to be properly maintained and cared for. #ParkChat


replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3. Fortunately, Oregon has border to border public beaches, so I've been hitting the sandy shores and sandstone cliffs #ParkChat


replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3 State Parks...Texas has like 90+ but @PedernalesFalls State Park is practically in my backyard so it’s my go to hiking/outdoor spot for now #ParkChat

@publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3 We generally don't do a lot of reservation type activities. But generally do at least one camping trip with other parts of the family who are less back country oriented. On hold at the moment

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP #parkchat A3 just planned our 2019 summer adventure this week instead of planning more winter outings at this point. More to come at Q12. 😉

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3: we love state and local parks. We already have plans for some national parks within the next 4 months. We may need to reschedule. Tbd. #parkchat.

A3 #ParkChat I don't camp much, but if I needed campground reservations I would look to the state parks and see what they have avaiable

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP A3: There's no shortage of state parks here in California, thankfully. If the rain lets up this weekend, I might even hike to some waterfalls. #ParkChat
