<DIV>this, of course, being why people not only have to pay to get into the
park, but then pay increasingly exorbitant fees to stay at in-park lodgings, buy

liabilitycomes from city parks in England (English Common Law), from which we
get<BR>much of our own American common law. It means that land owners
and<BR>occupiers have a well established duty not only to remove hazardous
trees<BR>in public campgrounds but also to actually INSPECT for such trees
and<BR>hazards. That's why the trees got removed at Bridge
Bay.</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>

<DIV>I could point out a few leaning trees in the lower Old Faithful Inn parking
lot. Might not one of those fall? Might is not be removed to eliminate any
possible liability? I pray that one lands on my car this summer. Oh, yeah.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>C'mon people. I speak not just from experience in Yellowstone. In numerous
ways, the NPS has gotten ridiculous. Indeed, if this parking lot matter was
studied in the Death Valley fashion, it would probably be closed for use pending
several years of study. Not a joke -- sorry.</DIV>
