The act establishing the NPS states: "The service thus established shall promote and regulate the use of the Federal areas known as national parks, monuments, and reservations hereinafter specified by such means and measures as conform to the fundamental purposes of the said parks, monuments, and reservations, which purpose is to conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and the wild life therein and to provide for the enjoyment of the same in such manner and by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations." Expansion of existing or development of new campgrounds can obviously come into conflict with the conservation mandate and the order to leave the parks unimpaired for future generations.
Seems to me that the federal government bureaucrat run RV parks have not kept pace with the growth of the RV industry in both quantity of RV's and the physical size of the RV's of today. Park roads can be tight, spaces can be short and few in number. My experience with park rangers and others suggest that they believe the government owns these parks and don't realize they are managing these parks for us, WE THE PEOPLE, we own these parks. Why won't the feds modernize and update the RV parks?
