My favorite comment on the article...
.8 is almost a whole mile! That reminds me...
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you are a mile away from them and you have their shoes.

"Some hikers, including Sarah Vetault, would prefer to have the road reopened to vehicles."
"...Vetault said, also would pose a difficulty for elderly or less-agile hikers who benefited from driving directly to the Cat Mountain Trailhead before the closure."
"I'm not going to use the Sarasota Trailhead because it's too much in the sun and too much up and down."
I'm thinking that if the "too much up and down" is enough to render one unable to CLIMB that mountain, you probably shouldn't attempt it in the first place.
I'm also thinking Sarah is just lazy. She's probably mad that all the good parking spots are taken when she goes to the store.
