I realize that this is due to the government shutdown but it is a prime example of how the masses treat the environment & unfortunately there is a lack of man power to govern the areas that are already open to the public.

It is the last place on the entire Pacific Coast where they run cattle on the beach when they gather. It is also designated an agriculture preserve.
