I was at the Red River Gorge last summer, and it was crazy, people have written all over the rocks, there was trash left behind. None of that stuff was there when i would go every summer as a kid with my family, it was always clean. Sad that some people just don't care, and ruin it for others. Still like to go down and do some hiking, just sad the view is not what it use to be

HA HA levelhead!!! Before we know it mowing the grass will be considered "murder"......I'm surprised the "worm worshippers" haven't had lawn care professionals banned from using chemicals!

Actually, there is PLENTY of fun to be had in the gorge while adhering to the rules. I have been hanging in the gorge for the past 25 (+) years. Most of these rules (like camping well off the trail) are really not new, and they have always been enforced as far as I can remember. Not sure why the story, but maybe they are looking a bit closer now...dunno...

Not tearing stuff up is one thing, but this green movement is outa control. Maybe we should just stay in the house so we do not bend over any blades of grass as we try to enjoy the outdoors. Retarded do-gooders are always looking for something to justify their positions.
