Let them spend a weekend in the woods then. There’s no reason to spoil a very rare commodity so that someone with no experience or appreciation can make use of it. There are many, many “close enough” experiences, and very few that haven’t been tainted by improper use. We should preserve these priceless spots, not sacrifice them to the lowest common denominator.

It’s not a rare commodity. People complain because it’s the best/iconic spots that become accessible, but there’s a near endless supply of almost as good locations in the national park system that nobody visits.
