4. We can thank outdoor writers and bloggers for this...

It pisses me off because these McDonalds-like writers are giving cheap information to many people who really don't care or appreciate the outdoors.... These people show up for a couple hours, take their selfies, trash the place, disrespect the solitude and leave...

In my opinion, these hidden places should be discovered on one's own and not advertised through a blog or newspaper (to just any schmuck). If you are out and about and run across a sweet spot it's probably because you already have an appreciation for the outdoors.... Word of mouth is okay, but I'm starting to loath outdoor writers and where possible, I always remind them how they are contributing to this problem.

Global warming and wildfires are making things worse because it concentrates the best time of year to visit places...

Depressing....
