Hello everyone.  I wrote an article about the down trend in Quetico.  I am glad to see people here think it is something to be concerned about and should be remedied.  I had one person comment that he liked the high fees and restrictions because it keeps the "idiots" out.  With the recession here in the USA the $20.00 a night fee also keeps out a lot of the middle and working class here in the USA not to mention the poor.  The "idiots" that the commentator may have been talking about may have been me, but I think he is also indirectly talking about those that cannot afford the Quetico experience anymore.

I am going to Quetico August 10 and it will be great to have the park relatively to myself, but it also concerns me that visitation is way down.  The more people that discover how beautiful it is up there the more people who want to protect it and protect the outdoors in general.
