Echoing Clayton, sign your bloody post Stonieorl99. Two, you made a trip all the way to Utah from Florida suggesting that this wasn't a quick impulse but rather a well planned trip. Checking with the locals is always a good idea. A quick stop at the ranger's office before hand or at the very least a call before you left Florida would take of that. And while I am all for freedom, I don't think that just getting out of your car at the crowded over look dropping your gown and snapping pictures is a good thing to do. This may not have been what happened, but if a ranger was close by, it suggests tat you were NOT in the back country or that far from where families of many diverse beliefs may have been walking or enjoying their park.

Subject: [Digital BW] Re:Be Careful Who You Photograph in National Parks Dear, Your post about shooting in the National Parks is disturbing, to say the least. It's become an issue for a number of years now, but the lack of rules which allowed the park ranger to make his own value judgement, based perhaps on his personal religious or moral code is outrageous. I strongly suggest, if you haven't already done so, that you contact ASMP, APA, and PPof A with this information. They have been steadfast in fighting these types of government abuses, which really are values that a few are trying to impose on the many! And as an aside, it would be nice if you would sign your posts with your name. Nobody likes responding to an email nom-de-plume . If this weren't such an important issue, I would not have written back.

The offense was "failure to obtain permit," 36 CFR 1.6(g)(1); the citation did not mention the law or regulation that actually required the permit. The citation imposed a $150 fine, and required a mandatory court appearance. I might have contested the charge, but the court appearance would have been in Salt Lake City, Utah, and I live in Florida.......
