Fees and policing may be the only answer that will work. If it is, it is a sad commentary on those that proclaim to love the outdoors. Make it harder and less will go. ATC! Tear down that shelter! Sorry. Channeling Reagan. I abhorred the police state of the Whites. If I heard one more Ranger Rick talking about why they needed more money, I was going to puke. The problem with money being the answer is there will never be enough money to satisfy the needs because new needs are constantly being invented. It makes me cringe to think that is an acceptable solution in hikers minds when it would be so much easier to do things that would discourage the fair weather hikers.
