I received this from an American friend.
National Park Feedback from the Fresh-Air Challenged
The following are actual comments received in 1996 from the Bridger-Teton National Forest registration sheets and comment cards:
* Instead of a permit system or regulations, the Forest Service needs to reduce worldwide population growth to limit the number of visitors to wilderness.
* Ban walking sticks in wilderness. Hikers that use walking sticks are more likely to chase animals.
* Trail needs to be reconstructed. Please avoid building trails that go uphill.
* Too many bugs and leeches and spiders and spider webs. Please spray the wilderness to rid the area of these pests.
* A small deer came into my camp and stole my jar of pickles. Is there a way I can get reimbursed? Please call [phone number].
* Reflectors need to be placed on trees every 50 feet so people can hike at night with flashlights.
* Escalators would help on steep uphill sections.
* Need more signs to keep area pristine.
* A McDonalds would be nice at the trailhead.
* The places where trails do not exist are not well marked.
* Too many rocks in the mountains.
