Thinking about a future for Texas State Parks and the Texas Hill Country. We need to break out of the preconception that a "park" must entail a single, unbroken stretch of public land. Instead, if we envision a park that is a patchwork of public and private lands - by design not by accident - then we can talk about the ways that we can protect the natural beauty, expand recreational opportunities and safeguard traditional economic livelihoods. https://lnkd.in/gcznjMk9

For a few more years, the Great American Outdoors Act will address critical repair projects and improve visitor experiences in our national parks. However, the current funding won’t be able to repair every broken bathroom, crumbling trail or outdated visitor center. The backlog of repair needs at our national parks has reached more than $22 billion, and routine maintenance and repairs currently outpace annual investments by Congress. Parks are more popular than ever before, but infrastructure needs continue to impact visitor access and safety and park resources. NPCA and our members and supporters are urging Congress to extend the Legacy Restoration Fun at current levels for an additional five years. This will ensure our parks can continue to welcome visitors and protect the natural and cultural resources that tell our nation’s history. We're here to keeping making more park success stories. #GAOA #GreatAmericanOutdoorsAct #NationalParks #ParkFunding #FundOurParks #ProtectOurParks

Did you know that much of the beautiful outdoor space we enjoy in Colorado is actually privately owned? Thanks to the Colorado Recreational Use Statute (CRUS), landowners are encouraged to open their lands for public recreation without fear of liability. This law plays a crucial role in expanding our access to nature and keeping our outdoor traditions alive! Here's how it works: ✅ The statute limits the liability of landowners who provide their land for public recreational use without charging a fee. ✅ This means more hiking trails, climbing areas, and scenic views for us to explore! ✅ However, it also means we have a responsibility to respect these private lands as if they were our own. Remember: 🚫 Always follow the guidelines and rules set by landowners. 🚫 Leave no trace, respect wildlife, and stay on designated trails. Let's show our gratitude to those who generously open their land for our adventures. Share your thoughts on how we can all contribute to preserving these vital outdoor spaces. Learn more about CRUS and how we are working to strengthen it at www.fixCRUS.org. #ColoradoOutdoors #RecreationalUseStatute #OpenAccess #LeaveNoTrace #PrivateLands #PublicRecreation #ColoradoHiking #OutdoorEthics #Conservation #AdventureResponsibly
