Close Queen’s Bath down already! Start citing trespassers and charging them for any emergency services provided. The lack of respect and disregard of warnings and laws is incredible.
Agreed ! Big sign, big gate…still local haloes renting to tourist in illegal rooms and condos, giving bad advice saying fun go there. Making five different even more dangerous other trails to make more money to do wrong down new ways. Gate, sign is a waste of time. They trespass make new ways around.
No going down or near the bath, or pay severe fine. Can look down, see bath , view and go. Bye. Caught down big $5,000. Fine per person. Simple .
Why not. To refund back pay state & county for the million rescues. Amen.
