And while I'm at it, why is the Monumental Sports Network app so terrible and unwatchable? Thankfully, the first week was free, because @patred.bsky.social just cancelled and deleted it. We can listen to Walton instead. #ALLCAPS

Can anyone in the Badlands National Park area corroborate this Badlands Banshee story? Or is it just something @legoparkranger.bsky.social made up? #ParkChat #SpookyParkChat
#ParkChat Sunday can hardly wait for @camarowrx.bsky.social to conduct a her Fall themed chat on Wednesday at 9 PM ET. It’s been far too long on many levels. Please join us! @naturetechfam.bsky.social Oh yeah. We ran away from the Hurricane this week. #Alabama
I fear that they are lying about not touching the cherry trees. This golf course isn't supposed to be a country club; it's something that is... was... supposed to be for everyone. As usual, this man destroys everything he touches. #ParkChat wtop.com/national/202...

Things I did this #WorldMentalHealthDay. I mowed the lawn and changed the oil in the WRX. I picked up lunch so that @patred.bsky.social could watch the Nebraska game. (sadly, the Huskers lost. Hoosier Bear was happy). I made a fire in the firepit and read a bit from Outsider by Bob Doucette.
Pay attention to dispersed camping regulations if you actually care about minimizing your impact on the land. #ParkChat #LeaveNoTrace
Eric@mountainscalling.me · 2d agoCame back from Half Dome and found that tent parked on the turn off to my tent site. This person has high-end wilderness equipment, zero grasp of basic Yosemite wilderness campsite selection. “Camp at least 100 feet (40 paces) from both any water source and trail.” #Yosemite #ParkChat
As much as I love autumn (and it finally really feels like autumn in Maryland), I am missing wide open spaces. #ParkChat
There's no structured #ParkChat tonight. But that won't stop us from talking if anyone wants to talk.
Karen (always looking for a road trip)@camarowrx.bsky.social · 5d agoI really need a #ParkChat fix. Here's a photo from back in June when I camped at Assateague State Park. I woke up before dawn (unusual), so I figured I may as well see the sun rise on the Atlantic Ocean.

Old enough to remember when it would be a cold day in hell for the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service to issue a permit to kill eagles on a National Park But now Director Brian Nesvik of the U.S. Flop & Waffle Service is seriously considering it ewilli9767.substack.com/p/trump-admi...

Speak up to protect the #RoadlessRule Public comment period closes Oct. 6. #ParkChat
Center for Biological Diversity@biologicaldiversity.org · 7d agoLAST CHANCE to speak up to protect the #RoadlessRule. The public comment period closes Tuesday, Oct. 6. ICYMI: The Trump administration is aiming to undo this landmark rule and remove protections from nearly 45 million acres of wild, intact, national forests and 70,000 miles of rivers and streams.
For my newer followers, we'll still #ParkChat with the hashtag through the week. 10/14 will be the live chat, w/ 10 questions, 1 every 5min, starting at 9:00PM Eastern. You don't have to participate live though! Heck, even us ParkChat Hall of Famers get "behind" with answering when the chat is lit!
59nationalparks@59nationalparks.bsky.social · last wk.Sunday #ParkChat There’s no chat this week but we do have one scheduled on 10/14 with @camarowrx.bsky.social Please join us. Has anyone ever travelled to a Park by train? It used to be common. We haven’t except for overseas. We’re working on something.
#BlueSkyArtShow #3rdPlace Voyageurs National Park, where #STEAMinthePark met for the fourth year in a row this past August. It's a happy place for me, and I hope for others I've met there. @expeditionsined.bsky.social #ParkChat
Nooooo! Not a two goal lead! #CapsCanes
The Monumental app sucks. FFS, how are we supposed to watch this game on TV when the app sucks so badly? Any ideas? We've tried logging out and back in, and it works on the computer, but won't play on the TV (it shows the CC though?!). @rmnb.blog @japersrink.bsky.social #CapsCanes

Susan Jennys (she/her)@yellowstonenpgeek.bsky.social · 2w agoSo HCR reported today that apparently the pres wants to host a major league baseball game in an as-yet-to-be-built location IN Grand Teton National Park? 😡😤😡😤 I’m so sick of this sh*t! #parkchat #PublicLandsInPublicHands #nationalparks
Sunday #ParkChat Our next chat is scheduled with @camarowrx.bsky.social for 10/14. If you’d like to guest host for 10/07, we’d welcome you! I read the latest batch of billionaires looking to get some National Park land for private usage have struck. And the President seems to favor the move.
