The head of Yosemite National Park will retire after employees complained that he created a hostile workplace by allowing bullying, harassment and other misconduct — allegations that have been made in other national parks, officials said Thursday.

1. Eugene, I really appreciate your providing the names of the reporters on stories,

the place of origin, etc.

It's a big problem with the internet is that reporters and writers so often don't get their work acknowledged.

4. No, you wouldn't want it. Better to be a volunteer ranger. nt

3. Kelly Martin, one of the two whistleblowers is my neighbor in Mariposa on most weekends

when she doesn't stay in Yosemite Valley Mon-Fri for work.

My wife and I know her and husband well. We watched the cSPAN3 testimony and are so proud of her.. she was unshakable.

Technically, she is the Chief of Fire and Aviation - ABC News didn't quite get that right.

Other sources have said that Neubacher is also partly responsible for the Yosemite icon name changes that were "stolen" by the Delaware North Corps
Yes a lawyer was the real idiot but Neubacher knew the DNC contract was coming up, he knew about the name changes and DID NOTHING !!
He dragged his feet out of FEAR or LAZINESS and then D.N.C. says "we want 50 million for the park's icon names" or the park can't use them.

He should have been fired then.
