>>1689393pinnacles has very few visitors, proportionally, but it's very small, and the parking is fucked, so if you try to go on a weekend or get there after 11 on a weekday you can spend literally over an hour waiting to get waved through by a ranger, or be forced to park in overflow and take a bus to the trailheads. it really should not have been moved from a monument to a park, that was strictly political bullshit. the attendence numbers don't look that different after the designation change, but i call bullshit because i've seen first hand how much worse the crowding has become there, and i think that the level attendance figures are caused by people with parks passes not having to check in, so they're not counted.
