It's been a progressive thing through the years. I'm close to the Rubicon and Fordyce Trails. I've been seeing their decline for years. I was on Fordyce about 12 years ago. Guy in a landcruiser was going to do one of the river crossings. Water was moving pretty good as it was early spring and there was a heavy release of water from one of the dams. He was advised to get a cable hooked on his 'cruiser. Ego kicks in and he crosses without. Nothing in the 'cruiser was tied down. Needless to say he lost control, cruiser went on its side and dumped everything in it and got pushed down stream a couple hundred feet and was stuck there for a few hours until his group managed to get it up the bank.
