hi wow what wendy says is indeed the answer, i did not suggest we baby the seedlings i do understand that trees need an establishment period. As i said well constucted re-usable shelters may be an option. Whatever they decide the current camping area is to be closed. My worry now turns to what will happen to existing campgrounds, with the rise in numbers in existing areas? Erosion, and compaction more paths etc etc, If they establish a temporary campground will it be permament in the future once the pines is re-opened? What effect will increased users numbers have on the remaining vegetation?Will people have input as to where it will be? Will they finally replace the water using toilet systems with something such as a biolix(black water recycling system seen on new inventors check it out) sewerage system? This will save the cost of pumping out the sewerage and maybe that money can be directed into re-vege around the current campsites to accomodate for future increase in amount of traffic.
