Thanks for watching, and don't forget to share this important information with your public land community.
Cheers, Todd C
If our taxes pay for these public lands then why do we need permission to use these lands, isn't our taxes doing that very thing for us?
They do need some kind of a reservation system - can you imagine Yellowstone in July without one? I was stuck for at least an hour behind a jackknifed 5th wheeler just trying to get into the Old Faithful parking lot. It's insane when to see a geologic feature you have to park a mile away... and this was back in 2013. What they should do is something like encouraging shoulder season travel if they really want to make a difference.

The moment I caught on to your program I realized that you were covering a very serious subject with me for many years. I am seventy years of age, a Cold War veteran with a humble Associate’s Degree, a strong steward of all within the earth, and now you came along and now I am an activist. That in itself is wickedly ace!
Nice work here PJ. Everyone needs to be aware of the darkness of Rec.gov
Get ‘em boy!!! Yesssir. Absolutely Booz Allen. Thank you for this seriously important content. Also thank you for, unlike so many other creators that have shared on this topic, for sticking up for our rights. This type of content is exactly what the DOI has been working hard in the courts to restrict. Bravo to you my friend #ourparks.
Thank you for posting this video...I'm already a fan of this channel!!
Hello from Gatlinburg TN Smoky Mountains Park...I make content here and my Friend The Smoky Mountain Family told me about this . Great job 🌄🏞️🙏
Nice, welcome aboard. I really like those Smoky Mtn Family Folk! Great content over there...
Keep hammering this issue park junkie! I'm a decent enough planner, but like to go off the beaten path once and awile. DON'T BOX ME IN REC GOV!
Hey Park Junkie! Thanks for interviewing Dark Junkie😊. It’s as I thought, its about the $$$$. I’ll do my part by sharing your video and contact my Congress People. Fingers crossed the Park will once again be free to explore when ever we wish.
Ppl need to catch on to this!!!
Visiting Mount Rushmore in June. Might well be our last National Park visit. Sad times, indeed.
Thank you so much for sharing this important information. Wow blew my mind!
Just wanted you to know that the WSJ just "broke" this story - a month after Park Junkie gave us the low down.
Excellent, excellent video, Park Junkie! I will contact my congressman and senators(Tennessee). I WILL share this concern. Thank you.
In regard to a commentor's statement that we shouldn't be paying fees. I don't agree. Campers pay fees to camp almost everywhere. Except on very remote public lands with little or no facilities. The parks are totally underfunded. All but maybe 10% to pay for running the registration system should go directly to the campgrounds. Then maybe they could afford water, electrical, and sewer at the sites. The current leach system is shameful. And if their are fees for trail access or back country camping, the fees should go to trail maintenance. All of this should be audited by non-governmental auditors.
Thanks park-man!! A watchdog you are... I appreciate your work and caring
I demand more D.A.R.K. junkie
Thank you for keeping us informed…be well 🥾🥾😎
Thanks Park Junkie! I had heard “way back when this started” that it was not from the government. I now have a route to go with this. Thanks for get the facts!
Thx so much!❤️🕊🙏
Great info! Glad to see you still out there!
Thanks for making this video. Most people don't know how important this topic is.
Do one on concessionaires that get mining concessions and no competition and don't support workers' rights, unemployment compensation or even have a credible human resources management and cattle feed for food, all while having a monopoly worth billion and no competition.
I have been sharing this video as much as I can. It is a shame that our government is so underhanded and stealing from the people.
Cute parody Todd 😆 although very serious in it’s message. I will definitely be contacting my congressman. “Follow the money trail to where ever it leads..”. Thanks for your research. 👍🏻
Hey the well street journal just released a article a out this so it should be getting way more attention
Thanks for the info and sarcasm
Good info Junkie, as usual. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing!
Brother, this is Awesome!!! Dark Junkie is Great! Seriously good stuff here. I will be Sharing!!!
I shared, thanks for making this video. I'm getting ready to send off an email to my congressman.
Hi Park Junkie. Glad you came back out of Mexico unscathed and ready to press on. I'm glad you took the break to recharge. I remember the first one that you took down about this and this one is equally powerful and informative. So good on you Park Junkie for doing your part, because only you can prevent forest lockouts. P.S fix that word in the quote of the opening if it is truly broken. If it's okay I have a reading disorder then. ;-)
How does providers like Xanterra play into this? Seriously, $500/night in 2013 for one room to stay at a lodge in Yellowstone was a BIT excessive IMHO. $200-300, yeah - I can see that.
Time for an audit of the Dept of the Interior, specifically the NP system of vendor contracts (bid and non-bid), and the vendor officials ties to elected officials. This skulduggery has been in play since James Watt was Director of the Interior.
Thanks bro! I knew something was fishy…
Thanks for this information
I wonder how many towers and other spying equipment is going to be added to the national parks.
Good info and entertaining as always. Way to rally the troops toward change for the better! I’ll do my part
Tod, I just hope everything goes well. I don't understand why people can't enjoy the land that God left for all.
Huh, public private partnerships. What did Mussolini call that again?
Boy, I'm sure glad I got to experience the national parks before rec dot gov became a thing. By the way, do I detect a bit of an X-Files "Smoking Man" vibe going on with Dark Junkie? 🙂. Speaking of being spied on, back when I worked for Pac Bell I was asked to work on a project to install a surveillance package for a national law enforcement agency that would tap into the telephone network. After seeing what they were going to do and thinking about the implications, I declined the "opportunity". Keep up the good fight!
Damn son! Bs! Glad your doing good tho!
Great Video Todd!!! This is apart of the build back better plan. Nobody under $400,000 will be taxed😂
Our government sucks sht
Yes, this is also enforces a chaste system on all of us that actually is illegal. I really appreciate your program and l totally want contact with you but I have little idea on how to do so. If you know how to contact me, you sir have my permission to contact me. Let’s organize against Booze Allen 😏.
