Snowmobile ban in Yellostone overturned

:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Who fucking needs to snowmobile? In a fucking national park? Morons!

http://www.cnn.com/2004/US/Central/02/10/yellowstone.snowmobiles.ap/index.html

CHEYENNE, Wyoming (AP) -- A federal judge blocked severe restrictions on snowmobiles in Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks Tuesday, nearly two months after they were put in place.

U.S. District Judge Clarence Brimmer in Wyoming ruled the restrictions would cause irreparable harm to companies that rely on snowmobiling in the parks due to lost business.

Brimmer issued a temporary restraining order against the restrictions and ordered the National Park Service to develop temporary rules for the rest of the 2004 season including use of cleaner, quieter snowmobiles.

It was not immediately clear what the next legal step would be, or what rules would be in effect for the 2005 season.

1. Wonder why the elitist party are trying so hard...
to destroy everything good in this country. Maybe because it's their last chance...

I live 45 miles north of Yellowstone north gate.

Its a sad day when the environment takes a back seat to a loud, obnoxious, nausiatingly smelly, and gas guzzling "outdoor" recreation.

The statement, "Wyoming ruled the restrictions would cause irreparable harm to companies that rely on snowmobiling in the parks due to lost business" is pathetic.
