Recently I introduced myself into John Muir, after a couple readings I discovered his trail in California, then I watched Mile, Mile and A Half. In the documentary they talk how hard is to get a permit to hike it which as an Europoor it was pretty strange to find out that you actually need such thing to hike there. But even though I get it's to preserve it, how do they enforce such rule? What's stopping someone from cutting through the woods and hiking it? Has any of you burgers ever done it? Thanks.
