Great article, we trap, hunt, and fish in a national preserve and have fought our share of battles with the park service. As long as these land managers remain in our state it will always be a never ending battle. The park service tries to play the federally qualified folks against the non qualified folks, this is a divide and conquer strategy as ultimately they despise both because both are consumtive users.

Thanks again, Ted. Your tireless battle to protect Alaska's wildlife, and those that utilize it, is remarkable, and greatly appreciated.
You have been a solid visionary, as long as I can remember, and miss your level-headed, well thought out questions, (and guidance), on the BoG.


Just doing what I want now.

Ted is right on the money. NPS needs to start paying attention to the law (ANILCA) and play by the rules instead of making up their own.

You would think that after they were slapped down (TWICE, 9-0) by the Supreme Court in "Sturgeon" that they would get the hint. But that arrogant a bureaucracy really needs a 2x4 betwixt the eyes I guess.

I would hope that the recent SCOTUS decision in West Virginia v EPA would create an opening for the state to sue the Parkies right out of here !

I can tell you from hunting a preserve and owning a cabin in forest service, they are doing everything they can to remove all users.

Someone I know, but will not name out of concern for reprisals, has been attending Park Service meetings/hearings in Anchorage this week. He says he keeps having to fight himself to keep from jumping to his feet and shouting, "That's a lie!"

And he works for the Park Service.

I love the smell of burning spruce---I love the sound of a spring time goose---I love the feel of 40 below---from my trapline I will never go!
