I can understand a little bit why they want to close fordyce as well as others. A lake in the area of fordyce that I go to several times a year is getting trashed. Examples such as a camper shell that has been dumped,shot at and crushed, strewn about a campsite, meadows with tons of tire tracks-looked like 50 trucks spinning donuts, flowers everywere including right on the water, thousands of bullet casings, tons of garbage- appliances you name it. I go camping at different places in the Sierras almost every weekend in the spring,summer and fall and its the same story, some worse than others. Its not just hurting people who go to the Rubicon and other trails but people who like to explore all the dirt roads in the mountains. Sometimes I wonder if the word is getting spread about being more responsible. I think alot of people dont give a crap.
