About 7 years ago a local swimming hole on a hardly traveled road got on the ten best swimming holes list in the US. Suddenly it turned int a mob hundreds of people would pile in, garbage of every sort was everywhere at the swim area and a trail all the way to parking.

Finally after a few years of it the state had to do something now a paid permit is needed to go in it is patrolled by the state forest rangers. Ugly posts and cement barriers were put up to stop parking on the already narrow road.

It is one of my favorite roads to bike on again now that traffic is gone, sucks it had to get to that point, some people are slobs.
