This is true of the first anecdote about the private property, but the other issues are still issues. We have a few “hot” locations in Colorado, most notably Maroon Bells in leaf season, and the level of general disrespect is shocking: ladders, fights, overcrowded parking, and so on. Sadly I have no idea what a solution is - the land is public and limiting access numbers is exclusionary and easy for the privileged to “hack.” It’s really a challenging cultural and philosophical question: how does one define and perpetuate common decency in an increasingly crowded world? And, going back to the distaste for people “in the shot” and the DIY attempts to make locations less appealing, is anyone entitled to an “unspoiled” view by their own definition? To some extent Christo and Jeanne-Claude explored this concept from an artistic perspective decades ago, but cultural shift doesn’t have a finite end in the way an installation does.
