Agenda 21 in action. Get ready for more of this.
On the button. If you’ve noticed, the number of camping spots in the major National Parks shrink each year. After “remodeling or upgrading”, the number of available spots always goes down. Hiking and trails are restricted. Cars are prohibited and you must ride the official guided tour buses with appropriate ranger and associated propaganda. On the other end, the $500 - $2,000 a night lodge accommodations are increasing but for only for the selected elite which includes governmental agencies at taxpayer expense.
Indeed it is. This action will be devastating to the tourist based economies of Inyo and Mono counties of California, near the ski area of Mammoth Lakes closing some of the most popular fishing and camping areas on the eastern slopes the High Sierra some 85 air miles and six hours by highway from Fresno. Here is a message from the owners of a resort near the High Sierra town of Bishop:
URGENT - WE NEED YOUR HELP & COMMENTS NOW - URGENT
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is proposing to list the Sierra Nevada yellow-legged frog and the northern distinct population segment of the mountain yellow-legged frog as endangered and the Yosemite toad as threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA).
The Service is also proposing to designate critical habitat for these three amphibian species in California. Primary threats to the various species identified include habitat destruction, recreation (including trout stocking), dams and reservoir diversion, livestock use (grazing), packstock use, roads, timber harvest, fire management activities, disease, climate change, and pollution. With overlapping areas, the total proposed critical habitat for the three amphibians is 1,831,820 acres.
In Inyo County areas proposed for habitat designation include Rock Creek Lake, Mt. Tom, the Bishop Creek drainage (including South Lake), Coyote Flat, the Big Pine Creek drainage, and Onion Valley. Additional critical habitat is proposed adjacent to Inyo County over the crest of the Sierra Nevada and in Mono County.
The critical habitat designations have the potential to devastate the County’s economy and restrict access to important recreation areas. The listing of the species will add additional permitting burdens, and may further restrict access to public lands.
Please go to http://inyoplanning.org/projects/USFW_YellowLeggedFrog.htm - under “ADDITIONAL INFORMATION” you’ll find “SUBMITTAL OF COMMENTS” - and submit your comments under both proposals. Your comments need to be made prior to June 24, 2013 at 9:00pm.
PLEASE COMMENT AND SHARE - GET THE WORD OUT!

Nope. While this may be coherent with the goals of the Agenda 21, "no entry zones" are specific evidence of The Wildlands Project.
