Ward Creek Plans

The Forest Service should not allow commercial-use permits of
this free public recreation area. Twenty tourists in a group
would definitely clog the trail. When people pay money to be
somewhere, they have a sense that they own the place.
Furthermore, the Forest Service should not be competing with
private enterprise. Consider the Rainforest Sanctuary, which
conducts tours on their own land. It is unfair to compete with
them.
Keep the public lands open to the public. Tourists are welcome.
Commerce is not.
