I'm just curious. They are trying to legalize marijuana in Nevada. So if it is legalized how would NPS react to people smoking pot in the Nevada Triangle section of Death Valley? Generally the NPS uses state law from the jurisdiction they are in. If this law passes I look for them to have to build a campground in the Nevada Triangle to handle the multitude of Californians headed out for a weekend of partying. :-)
From the Pahrump Valley Times:
"Question 9 would allow adults to possess up to three ounces of marijuana legally, and calls for the Legislature to otherwise regulate it in terms of sales, taxation and cultivation while also maintaining penalties for use, distribution and selling. Simply put, firing up a joint at home would be legal, driving under the influence of marijuana would not."
