Voted 10/10 | We got this message today. Don't know if you want to incorporate it into this page. I'll probably stick it somewhere on the Castleton page. Hello! I am writing on behalf of Utah Open Lands, the conservation group that owns the area around Castleton Tower, on which the campground is located. The area is becoming severely impacted, and Utah Open Lands is taking steps to keep this place available for recreational use for future climbers, hikers, and desert enthusiasts-- while still keeping it a fee free campground to be used and enjoyed by many. The suggested use guidelines can be found on the website of Utah Open Lands (utahopenlands.org). As of today (October 1st, 2010), Utah Open Lands is requiring campground users to register before they visit the campground. There is no cost for registering. All instructions for registration can be found on the Utah Open Lands website. If you could edit the page for Castleton Tower on SummitPost's website to reflect this change, I would be very grateful. A basic few sentences explaining that there is now a registration process, the website where this information can be accessed (www.utahopenlands.org), and a gentle reminder to all users that this area is in a delicate ecosystem that merits conscientious use. Wag bags, stove use instead of campfires, and Leave No Trace ethics need to be heeded to keep this area enjoyable for eveyone! Thank you very much. Please contact me if you have any questions. Best, Casey O'Malley | |
