These statements are made by people that us the Book cliffs and Strawberry for recreational puposes. They need to remember that where they live was once recreational area to. The responsible developement of oil and gas on federal and state lands does nothing but provide more moneys to develope these areas into recreational places we all can use together. The people that fight oil and gas developement are the ones with the largest SUV's, boats, four wheelers, camp trailers ect. and feel they are entitled to use these areas at no price.
