I'm not the first, I'd love to see the park service operating such services in our parks, guiding, interpreting, making infrastructure projects happen with a focus on real community access and wholeheartedly minimising impact.. who better? Privately profits are maximised and, and when, access is limited. Environmental protection, despite the rhetoric, will never be much more than an economic constraint to private enterprise.
