Comments about ‘American Fork Canyon, Alpine Loop fees to jump’

I'd have no problem if the entire fee were kept to help improve the canyon, but I'm tired of paying into another slush fund for Congress to redirect to other pet projects.

"Fees to Jump" is not quite accurate. "Fees to Double" would be more Like it. Will services in the canyon double also?

I think it's awesome. Contrary to what the first poster wrote (and this is highlighted in the article) fees DO stay in the canyon and are NOT distributed to idiots in Washington to spend on pet projects.

We live near the mouth of the canyon and have ALWAYS paid as much as we could in the form of annual passes to support development because we spend so much time there. Usually we buy two passes (one for each car in the family). This year my stepson returns home so we'll buy three of the more expensive annual passes and it'll be worth every penny. If the forest service collected donations, We'd be the first on he list!

Stop griping. An afternoon in the canyon with the family is cheaper than a Jazz game and INFINITELY more fun. If only all fees and taxes were spent so well.
