replying to @NakMakFeegle @NakMakFeegle @mjn126 @publiclandlvr @NatlParkService @PetroglyphNPS @GreatSmokyNPS @BryceCanyonNPS In fairness, while that probably really is the current Administration's priority, the reason the office is open is more likely simply that any government office funded through fees or royalties legally stays open during a shutdown due to a lapse in Congressional funding #ParkChat

I agree, but I'm 42. I used to get paid to drive around southern California with a Thomas Guide! #ParkChat https://t.co/Hsd51bskio

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @ShastaStatePark @CAStateParks A5: There are so many options here in California. My most recent stop was Big Basin Redwoods last November, which I visited to get away from the Camp Fire smoke. https://t.co/hKXx3quVrw #ParkChat

Q9: @GoParks has launched an emergency fund to help NPS sites recover from the government shutdown. How else can #publiclands visitors help? #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @WoodsyOwl @leavenotrace @AdCouncil @forestservice A9. Million dollar question. Nothing to do with the shutdown, but it really bugs me that my first memory of driving into Mt Ranier NP were graffiti-covered rock walls. So many with so little respect. #parkchat

A8 I'm really not sure bc you know the people doing a lot of the damage at Joshua Tree know they aren't supposed to be cutting down trees and people know they shouldn't use a parking lot as a public restroom. So what can you do? People need a class or license to enter? #ParkChat

A8: our society sucks right now. People don’t go to parks to enjoy the beauty like they used to. Snap a selfie, throw away their Starbucks cup in the trash or on the ground and move on. We are always picking up after those folks everywhere we go #ParkChat

replying to @mjn126 @mjn126 @publiclandlvr @ChacoCultureNHP @PedernalesFalls It’s not a huge park, but it’s popular and parking lots often fill up either go early or wait until late afternoon (2-3). If has recently rained heavily might not be able to go all the way down to the falls-prone to flooding or flow too strong to safely explore area #ParkChat

replying to @Stars252525 @Stars252525 It is really interesting. Virtually everything can be recycled in Japan. Best part is that trash collection is at your house. None of the "taking it to a recycling center." #ParkChat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @GallatinNF A6. I'm a fan of the DeLorme Atlas. I'm a fan of maps, in general. They help me plan, and then help me get off the beaten path during my travels. Also, those brown signs are my click bate, you might say. #parkchat

replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr @leavenotrace @AdCouncil @forestservice A8) #Parkchat I think getting more people, especially through kids programs, active in the parks, so they feel a sense of ownership and respect for the land. More Community activities in parks and school incentive for volunteering.

replying to @Parkasaur @Parkasaur @NatlParkPodcast @publiclandlvr @NatlParkService @PetroglyphNPS @GreatSmokyNPS @BryceCanyonNPS The 2013 shutdown worked well, a fact that is all the more apparent now that we have the current situation to compare it to. #parkchat
