The well-known Joshua Tree National Park in California can be 200 to 300 years to fully recover from all the damage that the past month has been done. That says, the former director of the park, Curt Sauer. The nature reserve in the desert of Southern California remained during the shutdown, the partial shutdown of the U.s. government, open, unattended, with all the consequences.
Eight park rangers that are more than a month, accounted for an area of 3,200 square kilometers. That is how the beautiful Joshua Tree National Park there are 35 days long. In the early days of national parks during a shutdown, just close, but the government-Trump bought that line with the intention of the U.s. population and less of the closure of the government feel.

The consequences of this decision turn out for Joshua Tree now, however, be devastating: many visitors took the opportunity to visit the park without supervision. Volunteers did what they could, but that did not much of a courtesy. Entry fees should not be paid, and no one told us what there was to be, and more importantly, what is not allowed. Visitors camped in the wild, and broke the locks will open, toilets were flooded and hidden, on the rocks with graffiti is applied, the car drivers reason of the roads and created wild new paths in the wilderness, and there were even some of the famous trees cut down.
