U S Senate discusses overtourism, crowding at Utah s national parks

It s something Utahns have witnessed in their own backyard for years now, as more and more people flock to the state s national parks. And it s something the U.S. Senate held a hearing on this week for one of the first times as more summer visitation numbers exceed expectations. It s overtourism  when more than a manageable amount of visitors come to a park and all that entails from environmental to economic impacts. The Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, where Utah Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) sits, held a hearing to review the impacts of overcrowding in our national parks on park resources and visitor use management on Wednesday.
