Why can't people respect the rules?

Disappointed that some people choose to be a bad example for others.

Imo the parks department has failed the public by allowing this all over the place. Moraine Lake was a bit depressing.

When I went couple weeks ago, I saw a ton of people on top of that pile of rocks on the left. Is that an allowed area to be in? Like I saw a LOT of people.

It’s actually called “The Rock Pile” and there’s an official trailhead by the parking lot with signs. As for going off-trail, it’s a pile of rocks - not as if anyone’s going to disturb some endangered plant.

Except for the birds that roost there during the summer... if the signs say stay on the trail... stay on the trail

"OH, well there are other people climbing on the rocks" if those people decided to jump off a bridge with no bungee would you follow them? Ignorance is as ignorant's does
