When President Obama talked about going back to Yellowstone with the First Family and how it bridged all those years back to when his grandma and his mom took him and his sister, i almost teared up..that's the power of the national parks..timelessness...in time...out of time..

Thank you all so much for bringing conservation for our own lands into focus. Eco-capital is tangible, valuable, irreplaceable, and relies upon this generation's stewardship! Our outdoors are an extension of who we really are and how we live. Our nation's youth especially need to know that their inheritance will be their project to care for on behalf of their children. Plug in the technology that will help manage natural resources and draw in the future caretakers. I hope they do great!

Now its up to each one of us who love and appreciate the great outdoors to ensure future generations share our passions and ardent support for this amazing legacy of public lands
