Saw these on the road leading to the Missouri Gulch trailhead, looks like people have been living there. Like pigs. I saw a pile of ash next to a fire ring that was (no exaggeration) as big as a refrigerator on it's side and all of these "facilities" between the site and the stream. Oddly not much trash.

There have been a lot of problems with people "living" on FS land.

Too bad the sign doesn't read "subject to fine and imprisonment". The fine is almost certainly cheaper than paying for any place to live, including a campsite.
