Dear Editor:

(Re: Icy concerns about Farnham, The Pioneer, May 24th, 2013) Arnor Larson needs our total support. The photo attached to his excellent letter speaks 1,000 words. Exploitation and destruction of our backcountry continues on a negative path, affecting all aspects of tourism let it be. We must slow down, smell the roses and permit Mother Nature to prevail. Jumbo Glacier Resort leaves me cold. If you hold the future dear for our children, water comes first.
