Severаl sites оn а mоuntаin within federal public lands are regarded as sacred tо a group of people that has gathered there for years to perform religious ceremonies. The United States Forest Service recently issued a permit to a private developer to construct a ski facility in an area that includes the sites that are sacred to the group. The group has filed suit in federal district court against the Forest Service to force cancellation of the permit, claiming solely that the permit violates its First Amendment right to the free exercise of religion. The Forest Service has conceded that the group’s religious beliefs are sincere and that construction of the ski facility will adversely affect the group’s religious practices. What must the group show to prevail on its First Amendment claim?
