So yellowstone folks - educate me here.
I presume the reason we do not walk on the spring is because it would interfere with the algae blooms that give the spring its color? I mean, to me it looks like a fairly benign, if hot, body of water that probably isn't going to be badly disturbed by human presence. At least not any more so than countless other natural features in the nation that we allow people to go traipsing about. I think of Yosemite in particular as a place just full of stuff where people are allowed to go just about anywhere that won't kill them (and sometimes places that will). Algae blooms are pretty much impossible to really damage so long as the nutrients that feed them remain in the water. Seeing as how those nutrients are likely coming from deep within the earth, i figure we can't do much to disturb that. I'm sure I'm incredibly wrong here, I'm just curious as to why I'm wrong and what it is I don't understand. |
Both groups are Canadians.
Shocker. There's a reason I ****ing hate Canada and it starts with the people! |

I totally get not wanting a tide of tourists just walking through there, but it seems unlikely to me that these guys could've actually done any real damage. Hell, it seems unlikely to me that they couldn't take a couple of groups out there daily to 'see the spring' and guide them apart from the liability issues associated with taking anyone onto a shifting mud surface. This just seems like a lot of people are upset about all the damage these guys could've done but I really don't think they could do much; algae's sturdy shit. |
I try very hard NOT to look like a tourist.

That said, the bison and elk completely ignored the signs and seemed to be fine. |
