They also have ties to the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership, but that makes for a mess compelling story, I guess. Either way, Y2Y isn't really specifically of concern here.

Back on topic - I feel torn on this one.

Completely natural management of these forests isn't going to work as lodgepole stands are going to burn every 80 or so years. That's not a great thing when you have a lot of people around.

On the other hand, There's a very real danger of devastating fisheries. These really are fragile ecological areas.

It would be nice to see people able to work together for a change. I don't doubt that an ecologically sensitive forestry management plan could be implemented but it seems like people (on either side) are pretty entrenched and refusing to budge.
