If someone were to be injured in using it, the USFS would get sued. It doesn't matter that it is safer than before. These things, no matter how well constructed, probably fall under the "attractive nuisance" category, built without a permit, EIS, etc, etc. Yes, I can think of another one down the road that is "permanent" and has had way more problems, but it depends on whoever is in charge of the area.Arnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01659306741062725224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8643389.post-47979757467591262022008-12-04T17:44:00.000-07:002008-12-04T17:44:00.000-07:00Has there been any update on this situation?

You guys are great! I'm hoping to make some headway on the situation the next few days and find out what the current status of the situation is.<BR/><BR/>And Matt, I'm always down to hike around.

Aside from the ...I think this would be a huge loss. Aside from the effort that has been personally invested by the gentleman the built the pools over the last three years(I met him while there in September), this is a pristine spot with very little trash, and the pools blend nicely with the surrounding hillside. The only reason I can think that this spring would be targeted is the fact that it is such a major infrastructure change.<BR/>Is this just a principle issue around the lack of permitting?Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08014719413584266766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8643389.post-48682186453375572102008-11-09T11:50:00.000-07:002008-11-09T11:50:00.000-07:00Hmm, that's my first thought too.

Are there issues with the springs that are not given light publicly? Vendetta of some sort? I'm trying to understand.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8643389.post-4621246617326511232008-11-06T08:51:00.000-07:002008-11-06T08:51:00.000-07:00I second your thoughts.

These hot springs are fantastic and pose less threat to the environment than one four wheeler... maybe four wheelers and big trucks in the area should be dismantled?Matt Weyenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06268339686761902280noreply@blogger.com
