I agree that a skybridge just sounds hideous. Having camped for a few weeks on the south rim, I can appreciate the beauty of this magnificent place, and frankly even the most stunning of pictures I took, or others I have seen, can't do it justice. If you need a glass, steel and concrete engineering monstrosity to appreciate this place, then something is terribly wrong with our world.
I am at a complete loss as to how a skybridge could possibly make the place better?
Here's how Tribal Executive Sheri Yellowhawk justifies it:
"...we have to look at the future of our kids, to have something that's economiocally feasable for their future"
What precedes this is an acknowledgment from her of disapproval from the Tribal Elders.
Geez, it's always about the children isn't it? Sounds like a corrupted western politician, instead of a vaulted tribal spokesperson. You could use this same arguement to justify filling the canyon with ping pong balls, to make a fun chuckie cheese like experience "for the children."
Your hardcore libertarian right wing tree hugging nut,
