Frankly, I am glad a judge squared off with them on this issue. I am not an evironmentalist, but keeping the parks as near original condition...undisturbed by adding new hotels seems like a great idea to me! Why did they allow hotels in a national park to begin with? Campsites I agree with because they are less obtrusive to the environment, but hotels should only be on private land surrounding the parks. Here, we have an abundance of lakes/parks owned by the US Army Corp of Engineers. Minimal camping facilities are allowed, but no other type of business is. They won't even allow a marina or boat docks placed on the lakes.
