fees charged and permits needed to record in Yellowstone

["ladyraven_69" <>]

Hi all,

I was shocked and dismayed to find out that you need to pay
$150.00 and obtain a permit to do nature recording within
Yellowstone National Park.  The Yellowstone Park public affairs
office called my husband today and said any nature sound
recording done for "commercial purposes" needed a special
permit and the cost would be $150.00.

I'm not sure what constitutes "commercial" to them.  A 500 cd
pressing of original music with natural sounds is a far cry from
the Discovery channel.=20=20

Has anyone else had this experience?

scratching my head,
Raven
