Should permits be required for heavily trafficked destination trails to manage overcrowding and protection of the environments they pass through?

    As much as I hate to say yes, cause I like to plan last minute trips...I don't see any other solution...


    Would love to hear other people recommendations on how to fix the problem if they have ideas!

    Ultimatley, whatever is best for the ecosystem- and that means crowds need to be managed… but would be best if there is a certain number of slots available for last minute hikers …

    I think it is a great idea to permit trails that are heavily trafficked! We need to be looking out for the environment and also spreading awareness that we want to preserve nature as much as possible!
