This video just came out last week, which is very ironic as all National Parks in the USA are closed right now. Jimmy Chin is a professional mountaineer and photographer and is highly respected in all mountain communities. In this video, Jimmy tells us why National Parks are special.
We need the USA to figure out this current budget issue and get our National Parks back open ASAP.
World-class climber, skier, and mountaineer Jimmy Chin scales Grand Teton and skis down, showing why he is one of the most skilled and fearless adventurers on the planet. Jimmy has circled the globe as an elite athlete, explorer, photographer and filmmaker, but his home is in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, near the stunningly beautiful Grand Teton National Park. (NationalParks.org/explore) The majestic Teton Range is ideal for rock climbers and ski mountaineers, and the park protects a diverse array of wildlife, including herds of buffalo and elk. Jimmy talks about visiting the National Parks as a child, and how he felt when he first saw the Tetons at age 18. He is one of the few people in the world to have climbed and skied Mount Everest from the summit. – National Park Foundation
No I am not and I blame the Teabillies who are engaging in an act of TREASON by deliberately HARMING the USA and for what ?? to deny millions of Americans affordable health care ?? what a noble venture …not. the republiCONs in the HOR should all be rounded up and arrested for their seditious actions.
I’m far from a republictard, and even farther from a teabagger, but you are sadly mistaken if you think they are just denying us affordable insurance. That insurance is mandatory, and for most of the middle class it is not affordable at all. Personally, I’m all for the gov’t shutting down for good and starting over from scratch. Those parks are OURS, if they can’t open them they can’t kick us out, just pack out your trash and poop.
Bullshit. Stop watching Fox –
You might want to do your own homework on what is really happening before saying something so far from reality…
Winter is getting closer!!!
Really – I think it is you who needs a lesson in Civics . IT IS THE GODDAMNED REteaPubs who did this – OPEN YOUR LYING EYES
It’s all good, we agree to disagree…
Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of untracked pow…

They pissed in your Cheeios, too.
