It's kind of funny, but with more than a drop of truth that one quad may not be enough for some. I have really known a few folks who got downright angry if they ran into someone in the back country.

I have seen pix of areas that were nearly destroyed by over-use (some of the Yosemite Valley Meadows come to mind -- especially El Cap area) and I like the fact that restrictions have been put in place to allow the areas to flourish once again.

I spend most of my time in the Tahoe National Forest -- where there are no restrictions, no permits et al, and some of the areas are worse than the city dump.....welcome to the wilderness.


The body betrays and the weather conspires, hopefully, not on the same day.
