The U.S. Forest Service has received three objections to a plan that would limit overnight use of the Maroon Bells-SnowmassWilderness.
The plan sets a cap on the number of groups who can camp in the wilderness area. Phase 1 involves a reservation system for the popular Conundrum Hot Springs and along Conundrum Creek. That system would begin next summer.
Peter Hart is an attorney for environmental nonprofit Wilderness Workshop. He said the group filed an objection to ensure they have a voice leading up to the final decision. Wilderness Workshop has voiced strong support for the plan.
The other two objections are from individuals who frequently camp at Conundrum Hot Springs.
The Forest Service has 45 days to resolve the objections before issuing a final decision.
