Fullkurl, I agree with a lot of what you are saying because I have experienced it too.  Park concessionaires (including guides and air taxis) do have to pay the park service a use fee, but that does not mean they have to take you where you want to go.  That is their choice.  Just because someone has a park concession it doesn't mean they have to take you where you ask and while that doesn't seem fair it is not discrimination nor is it illegal.  I agree that it is very frustrating trying to access the good areas in the preserve, but after spending a lot of time, money and sweat I am getting it figured out.  Others have it figured out too, but given how many sheep are there it could be a lot easier.
