  1. Well, this isn't the first time a land was fucked over. Steamboat, Colorado is a tourist town, but recently it gained a lot of more popularity and major changes happened. When I lived there in the summer and the winter it would be nice and peaceful, not too overcrowded, but last winter it was beyond crowded and they added this weird slide on the mountain, so now you have a big tourist thing in the middle of the bottom of the mountain that goes up it and it just takes away the natural beauty. I love Steamboat, Colorado, but don't take away the natural beauty of nature.

  2. You'd think they would be laws to protect these lands, but I guess they're aren't or they're like "Fuck it, we're doing this for research and we don't give a shit about your traditions or your sacred lands."

  3. My problem is they don't get the people's consent. In a city it's fine, but in a rural place like this it's awful.
