how much more i spend on my phone and
what i used to is ridiculous I look at
my like little brothers and said there
are definitely weekends where me and him
will sit inside and plan our computers
all they do is sit on like video games
link computer I technically due to for
living technology isn’t the enemy I
think it can help bring people into
parks too if you let them know my
generation is a reconnaissance to the
wilderness and I think that is spurred
by social media is the point for me to
share this with people on the internet
of what look what I did isn’t this great
for people in my generation who come
through kind of have a checklist is what
I’ve noticed oh they spot this spot this
spot I’m gonna go there or is it to
inspire other people to get out the
different way that we’re experiencing
parks is that we’re doing it in a more
interactive way so we’ll will tweet it
will Instagram it we use google maps to
find all sorts of parks to go camping in
here BB you can go look at trails and
top o maps you know I use birding apps
to identify birds it’s easier than ever
the question is where is the line
there’s always this debate and people
are like how much you’re actually
looking at what you’re seeing even
though they’re in nature they’re seeing
it still through a screen but I’ve tried
that before I’ve not taken my camera out
and I’ll see a beautiful sunset or
something and I’m I just regret it for
me personally it’s a motivator there is
a big drive to I’ll have that perfect
picture I can really appreciate what I’m
seeing while capturing it and I like to
have those memories and i love that
social media can have can capture those
moments not that that’s the driving
force for our generation to come out to
national parks but i think that plays a
big part in it I see something cool I
want to take a picture of it or I want
to film it or something like that then
I’m gonna go out further meanwhile
people are crashing drones into thermal
features in Yellowstone so yeah if you
have Wi-Fi in a park sometimes you’ll
see the kids sitting around the visitor
center there’s a lot of visitors that
come here that are so wrapped up into
technology tweeting about it and they
don’t really
walk anywhere maybe they don’t realize
when they come to you a semi national
park that it’s basically a black hole
for all cell phone service I’m so sad if
the whole party on Wi-Fi subtleties like
natural places become a lot more
difficult people afraid to be alone in
nature without anything to occupy their
time and then that’s when they start to
realize well there’s like more to life
than technology I don’t know where my
phone in its really nice to get a chance
the same time someone’s gonna see their
tweet who’s never been to a hard one
person goes and visits it and then they
get to see pictures that they get to see
how much you enjoyed it people are
constantly kind of bombarded with images
these places and it makes them want to
go the more you see it the more
accessible it feels or on Instagram like
let’s go here let’s go here I can’t even
tell you since I’ve lived here how many
people have reached out to me unlike
social media that don’t know me at all
like wow like you love such an amazing
life hey I’ve never been to yosemite
before but I really want to go in the
future maybe some of the visitation in
national parks will be virtually it’s
one thing to have it with technology and
that’s probably fine it’s another thing
to live it and they say authentically
experience the ecosystems don’t care
they’ll still be here he took daga ba
from star wars terrain is to simply make
it except it’s gonna be a little bit
cleaner it’s like a Midwestern desert
pretty much the quietest place you could
ever come places that feel like rain
forests and everything is covered in
moss 4,000 foot walls on either side of
us but then you get up higher and
there’s these jagged peaks and the
steepness we’re all dwarfed in these
mountains
what i used to is ridiculous I look at
