What is it about progressive governments and human waste everywhere?
Squatters? You mean there are no proper toilets? Oh my!
I’ve met many people that squat in the bottom of that canyon.
There are no facilities.
Its very isolation is its attraction.
I think cops and cleanup crews come in from the ocean, because it is such a nasty hike to and from the top.
Most hikers know if you take a dump. dig a hole, crap in it, then bury your feces, and the paper if used.
They must be tourists that don’t know better.
They certainly aren’t locals or experienced hikers
in primative areas.
They have plenty of food. I've been to Hawaii and I've hiked that trail in Nāpali Coast State Wilderness Park. It used to be occupied until the 1940s by native Hawaiians and there are still many fruit trees growing wild on that coast. The land is very fertile and they will have no problem feeding themselves and growing marijuana. And there is plenty of fish in the sea for protein. If I was a bum and had nowhere to go that would be a place I would go.
That being said, if Hawaii ever gets cut off for a few months they're gonna be eating one another. It will be haole for dinner.
Hawaii used to be a great place to visit. I’ve been there numerous times from the mid 80s till several years ago on business and what a change. Homeless encampments everywhere along with trash... your basic liberal shxthole.
I guess all the cruise haters now are going to boycott the HI “Petri dish”.
I can’t even imagine how awful HI must’ve become since we left there in the ‘90s. It was Heavenly.
Nelson: “HA, HA “
Kauai charges haoles above and beyond their expensive flights and expensive accomodations but now not for poop on the trails
(trails you have to pay to go on)
Sure, reward the squatters and penalize everyone else.
The correct solution is to get rid of the squatters from the very start.
DOH!
Not only do bears shit in the woods...
It’s a crappy trail....
Idiots probably stuff their faces before hiking, so they are really full of sh1t. Should have trail cams set up to identify and fine the filthy pigs.
Everything the left touches turns to excrement.
And Hawaii is far left, so it is naturally turning into a pile of Dorkbamastuff.
Paradise lost.
And, when hiking, don’t play with poop.....
Welcome to the democrat’s Third World
Part of the reason I passed on doing the Appalachian Trail. Some spots of these trails are just nasty.
How abput close la because of norovirus threat?
I'm not a virologist, but I saw one on TV. Squatter crap on a hiking trail seems like a very unlikely vector. Of all the places one could contract this disease, how has it been decided, "oh yeah, definitely the poop trail caused it"? I could see contracting it at a hotel or restaurant, or someplace else with concentrations of people, but this story stinks.
I had to laugh when I read this, because it reminded me of a anecdote related to me by my best friend from when he and his wife went out to Hawaii just a few years back and took a helicopter tour.
Their pilot (Army Afghan vet help pilot) was showing them remote and rugged terrain, and said “Hey, you want to see something?” and circled over a small beach, and he pointed towards the ground at a bunch of naked people looking up at them from the beach.
“Hippies!” he said, with a wide grin. He said it is against the law for them to be there, and the authorities keep going in and clearing them out, but more of them keep showing up there all the time!
When I saw this, I wondered if it was the same place...
I thought defecating squatters went extinct a long time ago when REAL Americans were running the country.
