This give me "a sad", too. It seems that wherever problems crop up regarding local land use issues, the enviro-activists are always from 'out of town'.
Is this why Obama recently had a meeting with the ‘tribal leaders’ ?
It’s such a huge monster. It’s not destroying it. It’s making it more accessible.
What’s wrong with these Navajo? They should take their money from the U.S. taxpayers and let the Democrats contemplate their navels.
I’m with the Navajo on this one. If they want this to work, they won’t degrade the canyon too much, or they will lose the tourists. It’s in their own best interest to balance the community needs and the environmental and aesthetic issues.
I don’t think they will screw up.
The tribe should show the environmentalists what the rim looks like.
A skywalk finished in 2007 over the western rim of the Grand Canyon, on land owned by the Hualapai tribe, has become an overwhelming success, drawing thousands of visitors a year, most from Las Vegas. Some then take a helicopter ride to the bottom of the canyon
My Wife and I did this a few years ago, Absolutely Worth every penny and then some, I encourage Everyone to go there, it is Awesome.
Ye gods, what next?
