I would love to take a snowmobile trip through Yellowstone, but I actually favor the ban. What we need are non- polluting and quiet snowmobiles.

I read the head line and thought that Snowmobiles were to be banned in Florida. First thought was that Michigan should retaliate by banning growing Orange trees.

Guess I need more sleep.

Why not just put a couple of "Snowmobile Tags" on hunting licenses and let varmit hunters with .50 cals thin the herd?
It would be more sporting and could even become a TV series.

More restrictions on freedom.

BS! Just ban ALL vehicles from these places. ALL. Make the envirowhackos WALK to see the pretty animals. Make joe six-pack(me) get off his azz and hike in. Pull all the roads up and return it to nature.

While we're at it lets outlaw breathing since every single person exhales carbon dioxide.

We do NOT need this. If I wanna scream by bambi doing 100 mph then thats MY bizness.

We need more laws like we need another 9-11.

Yellowstone is the people's park

Who does he think is on the snowmobiles? Moose?

I was in Yellowstone last winter, and did not see one gas mask. I think many of these people who oppose snowmobiling in yellowstone, should have to take one of the trips, or at least set foot there in the dead of winter. I think by the end of a trip they might start questioning the methods used by those who say great and un-manageable damage is occurring.

I think it is fair to say we don't have unbiased observers here formulating and reccomending these policies as well. The National Forest Service has become an isolationist group steeped in the fables of ecosystems. They view National Parks in the same manner as the Bio-dome. They do not believe man is part of nature. They are an elitist group who actually covets the lands for themselves, and wish to share it with no one. They take many actions that indicate such.

If you want to see National Parks Destroyed, then reduce the number of people who get to productively use them to near zero numbers. In another 100 years, you will have a generation who has never visited them, known the beauty, adventure, the natural resources, and spiritualism within. It won't be hard for them to decide we could just cut them down, sell them off, or let them burn.

Put succintly, Use 'Em or Lose 'Em.

Didnt this idiot say that the park was formed for ALL THE PEOPLE I guess people that ride snowmobiles are not REAL PEOPLE. Typical demo bulls--t.

I would like to see Senators Lincoln Chafee, a Rhode Island Republican, and Harry Reid, a Nevada Democrat, Representatives Rush Holt, a New Jersey Democrat, and Connecticut Republican Christopher Shays try and outrun a wolf on foot. Myself, I'll use a snowmobile then when I'm out side the park, a 30-06 to bring him around to being polite and respectful of human beings..

The only way you could enforce this ban is for park rangers to have snowmobiles to patrol the park. Does that make sense?

[1Old Pro]

I suppose that only government employees and politicians doing "fact-finding" will be the only ones to be allowed to use snowmobiles in the PEOPLE'S PARK.

Sheesh, I can't imagine a better way to travel in a snow covered park.
