Two women, Tara Davoli, 31 years old, and Sarah A. Piotrowski, 30, both of Philadelphia, were sentenced this week for being off-trail in a thermal area of Yellowstone National Park.
The charges are the result of an incident on June 11, 2020, where both women were seen off the boardwalk walking in a thermal area, which resulted in damage to orange bacterial mats at Opal Pool in the Midway Geyser Basin.
Numerous witnesses saw the two walking on the feature and confronted them in an effort to get them to stop.

They are lucky they didn’t go through the fragile crust and boil the flesh off their bones.

What a shame. Should have looted stores in the name of justice and gotten away with it.

I remember those. We had them in our bathroom in the 70's.

My youngest brother raced away in fear from a sudden geyser in Yellowstone years ago, cutting across the area between boardwalks, my mother in hot pursuit.
Later she said she was sure they were both going through the sand and into boiling water.
As it was, it just became a funny family story.

We have done it in some remote parts of the park—made sure nobody was around—and we were careful.
