COMMENT PERIOD: Public comment period extended to April 30, 2013
it's a good thing as I'm grinding through the report before writing my comments... also probably start another thread on some of the findings in that plan...

and you want to make sure you identify yourself as a US citizen
So Don Paul, since I filled out the letter and said I live in Ireland, but nowhere to state that I am a US citizen (of course I am, my father's family has been in the States since 1640, and my mom's emigrated from Ireland in 1840 and Germany 1843), does that mean my email letter is invalid.
Shall I refill the form out? And somehow state I am a Yank living abroad, but a native Californian who climbed a lot in Yo Valley?

Bump to get this back to page 1. As stated earlier, the deadline was extended to 4/30, so we have even less excuse for keeping silent.

As much as I love Yosemite, it really does need a Ritz-Carlton

In the High Sierra, there is discussion back and forth about horses and horseback riding, and how they add to pollution, cause degradation of delicate meadow habitats etc. Personally, I don't think we need horseback riding in the Valley. Is this addressed? I am not against using pack animals for some supply needs, but if you see a big train of horses raising a huge dust cloud, can't everyone live without that?

My values are like yours, aspendougy, but horses have been used historically in the Sierra for more than a century, and I'm not sure that the pollution they generate is as long-lasting as, say, the worn-away lichen that we generate on popular climbs. It doesn't take a particularly sharp eye to spot the whiter lines of Bishop's Terrace, Serenity Crack, Nutcracker or Chingando, to name just a few. Frankly, I find many climbs have much more noticeable lichen scars than even the Firefall.
We need to be careful advocating restrictions on other activities, because sooner or later, someone who doesn't care for climbing will use that logic on us.
