Pretty mind boggling.The coalition cited these examples of what the rules would bring:
- The use of snowmobiles would be radically expanded at Yellowstone and other national parks, allowing them to travel over any paved road in winter.
- Grazing and mining would be elevated to "park purposes," thus ensuring their continuation.
- The use of jet skis, ORVs, dirt bikes and other mechanized vehicles would be permitted on a virtually unrestricted basis.
- Tourist flights would increase, impacting the natural peace and quiet at parks.
- Rangers would be forced to kill bears at parks like Yellowstone if they damaged private property.
