Yosemite is 1,169 square-miles.
But the Biden Administration is limiting entries during to COVID-19.
This is fucking bullshit for no reason but to torment American citizens who like the outdoors.
Bullies. Control freaks. Not surprised.
Lessee here. There’s 5280 feet in a mile, so one person every 6′ (social distancing) in one mile is 880 peeps. That means in a square mile there’s 880*880 or 774,400. In a park of 1,169 square miles you can fit 905,273,600 people. That’s over 2-3/4 times the US population, so let’s say the entire US population could fit in there easily, fully socially distanced, while leaving rivers open and steep cliffs alone.
WTAF? Could they be even the tiniest bit logical and consistent?
WExcept, 99.9993% of all visitors do not leave the main area. Still could have all on CA in there. And now you have to reserve a time to climb Half Dome. Pissed my dad off no end. He had done it enough when he was younger he told them to pack sand. Once you leave the main valley/medow, you will be lucky to run into anyone (in the boonies if you do run into anyone, chances are it is cartel growing pot, so there is that. . .they also do not follow the no gun rule)
Getting flashbacks to the Obama years when he shut down national parks.
Hmmm, other sources say fresh air & sunshine wipe out the virus, not to mention high altitude.
They’re just fucking with us now because most of us have shown they can get away with it.
Payback’s a MF..
There’s a good solution to this: have the states take back the national parks, in compliance with the Constitution.
