Cars parked 0.75 miles from the trailhead on SR-14:
Jeez, I'd steer clear and drive... well, anywhere else, if I came to trailhead and found this :shock:. So many good hikes around.

Hope the planners realize how stupid this idea was and increase parking capacity.

P.S. in the video counted 101 cars parked before the trailhead; there's likely more at pullouts W of parking as well.

Yeah, well, it's enough of a problem that it bears repeating. :P
