[pct-l] Tuolumne Overrun by Thrus

[walt Durling]

The pics don't show trash strewn about the grounds.  Just one box with something overflowing it.  Doesn't look like much of a mess to me.  Most hikers are courteous and practice LNT.  If a successful business wants to close because of too much business from hikers, perhaps they shouldn't be in business where hikers amble by!

They are closing a lot of the areas in Yosemite, like the ice rink...making it a parking lot, the tents in Curry Village are being removed, all the rental horses are being removed, the bicycle rental will be gone as well as the shuttle through Tuolumne Meadows.  Take a look and read the article for yourselves.
