Round two:

While most of you will probably never get to Yellowstone/Teton National
Parks, I can tell you that they are overtaxed with rude, obnoxious, filthy,
environmentally illiterate, city folk that only care about themselves! Those
days of Good Sam are over! Having witnessed numerous destruction to our
Parks to include:

1-Dumping raw sewage and gray water on the roads from these RVs!
2-Two years ago an RV caused a bad accident killing a tourist!
3-Disturbing the wildlife to the extent of being gourd by a buffalo or
attached by a bear!
4-Throwing trash to include beer cans and bottles along the roadside!
5-Knowingly feeding bears so they will be destroyed all in the name of fun!
6-Driving at high rates of speed! (usually UTAH plates)

I can keep going on, but I think you get the idea.

What does this all have to do with Westies??? Actually very little. In bear
country where tents are not allowed neither can a Westy pop it's top, unlike
the flames I received earlier. I am entitled to my opinion and gave it! When
it comes to Yellowstone and the Tetons I will and do get active in keeping
and preserving OUR National Parks...especially the ones in my back yard!
