If the question you have in mind involves whether what you are doing is legal, or not, then you can look in the Superintendent's Compendium to find your answer. All laws and regulations are made to protect fragile natural and cultural resources.These laws and regulations also protect park visitors so we, and our future generations, may keep coming back to enjoy our National Parks.
