Since many of the N parks concession are run by private companies, will it make much difference. Since they have a lease on the park operations, are they controlled by the government.
I do realize that the parks still have government employees there.
When out west year before last, Yellowstone concessions were covered up with oriental employees. Many could barely speak English. From what I could gather, they weren't using near as many camp-workers as I had seen in previous years. So if it does affect the private companies it would put a huge dent in temporary US work visas.
The wife and I were traveling during one of the "congressional fiascoes" a few years ago, not sure which one. I can remember only 2 places we visited being closed and they weren't large attraction sites. They posted a closed sign on the gate, and though disappointed, we traveled on and enjoyed ourselves at the next stop.
