Trump seizes on pandemic to speed up opening of public lands to industry. One of the most controversial sales would offer up 150,000 acres in southern Utah to energy companies. Some of the parcels are located within a half-mile of Canyonlands national park.

Thoughts?

Hi Eric
I think now is not a good time to open up leases for energy production in Southern Utah or anywhere else. Especially now with the oil glut and the difficulty for people to make the public comments.

My views only

Peter

Peter, I do not think they should ever open these areas to any industry. They are a part of the American history and should remain as is, untouched and pollution free. Just my opinion.

You should see the MESS that the oil companies left in parts of East Texas.

I can show you places within 5 miles of my house where NOTHING grows and they have been like that like that my whole lifetime.

They have opened up the national parks on Friday and they had to close Arches right away due to overcrowding, we have more cases here also. A good many visitors don't seem concerned about social distancing or being careful and we had eight search and rescues last weekend mostly people doing dumb stuff.
I am concerned for my health with the big influx of visitors from all over the country.

Back to hiking, we went to balanced rock mesa, an area that is a little out of town with elevation in the neighborhood of 7000ft.
No trails there so no danger of seeing other people, which suits me fine.
Some very nice unusual rock features and some nice flowers still in bloom

Peter
