Stand up for Public Lands
Thomas Prior for BLOOMBERG BUSINESSWEEK

"While reservable campgrounds in national parks remain incredibly popular, the report also shows that reservable campsites in protected areas—even excluding national parks and their immediate surroundings—are more occupied during the peak season than other public lands, demonstrating the popularity of all protected lands, not just national parks."
