“There is nothing so American as our national parks.... The fundamental idea behind the parks...is that the country belongs to the people, that it is in process of making for the enrichment of the lives of all of us.” -Franklin D. Roosevelt (1936)

I worked there though not that era.This pic is taken at Artist Point of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River. This overlook is not open to vehicles any longer and hasn't been for decades.To the south,Grand Teton NP was ultimately protected in 1943 by FDR via Antiquities Act

I, for one, value these grand parks over any glittery building or golf course. The threat held over them is brutish. Lovely pic!

Better capture/preserve/archive some Bears Ears Nat’l Park photos before it’s totally ruined by drilling and other misguided tomfoolery.

As opposed to Trump paves paradise and puts up a parking lot. With a Trump hotel, a golf course, and a casino that will rot.

There's that 37 again. Mr Burns a 37 documentary is in order. Fun fact, the hallway, of the house in which President Lincoln died, was 37 inches wide. Why on earth would that statistic ever have been recorded?
