Well, National Parks may not be what I should have asked about, but National Forest rather.

???

Obama ref from the last shut-down, where he gated everything off, expending more workers to gate and guard than would have been there if it were open in many cases.

Government Shutdown
During the federal government shutdown, this website will not be updated and may not reflect current conditions. Some national parks may remain accessible to visitors; however, access may change without notice. Some parks are closed completely. Some visitor services may be available when provided by concessioners or other entities. For most parks, there will be no National Park Service-provided visitor services, such as restrooms, trash collection, facilities, or road maintenance. For more information, see www.doi.gov/shutdown and the park website.

So who’s feeding the bears?


I seen two eating on the West Yellerstone "Grizzly Bear" webcam the other day, but I was wondering - aint they s'posed to be snoozing by now?

I like to think that if I'm stuck on my snowmachine - that there aint no bears sniffin' at me downwind! I'm OK with the moose...


So apparently their feeding them outside the gate?

From Wiki:
The bear often waits for a substantial snowstorm before it enters its den: such behavior lessens the chances predators will find the den.

So I guess maybe that s'plains that, eh Lucy?
