New Corrections for The Last Post Re: Gold Butte

"Offroading Home" is continuing to not allow corrections to his ignorant postings regarding Gold Butte and the restoration efforts going on there. In this post I will go through and make the same corrections, so that the truth is out there for people to see that "Dr J" has absolutely no idea what he is talking about. Maybe that is why he will not post my corrections to his many,many errors.
I will begin with the last post entitled "Ride 17:"Fire" and "Man" Petroglyphs:

A)"Charley and I had heard several (somewhat conflicting) rumors about possible damage at the site – from "someone had chalked them" to "someone had shot them" to "someone had graffiti-ed them." None of which, fortunately, is true.

As you realize from riding the past week, the weather has changed and become quite a bit more humid than usual (for the desert). This has generated a substantial amount of alkaline lechate coming out of the rock – giving the appearance of "chalking." It's been doing it for hundreds of years and will continue for many more. It's how erosion works.

Except for the lechate, the glyphs are identical to the photos I took over three years ago when I first met them (I compared the actual photos)."

Completely false: While the process of leaching of the sandstone occurs, I also have photographic evidence(which will not be posted, due to graphic nature) of a Giant Penis drawn directly on top of the glyphs in Mud Wash. The white smudge is the remnants of an attempt to restore the petroglyphs. Not "Lechate". Furthermore, when the vandals climbed up to draw the penis, they broke a section of petroglyphs off the panel and into the wash. Which, I am sure has been recovered for safe keeping.

B)"This post marks a significant change in my attitude (and policy) about publishing exact GEO coordinates of petroglyphs. Until now, I've only published coordinates for sites, routes, trailheads and petroglyphs which were blatantly obvious from the trail.

Now, with the needlessly heavy handed actions of the BLM in the draconian closures, not only is my feeble "protection by omission" unnecessary it would be completely ill-spirited to require people to hike that distance (if they are able) and not know exactly where to look to find them."

How irresponsible can you be? Let's just post the exact pinpoint location of every petroglyph, so that people don't have to explore or have any sense of adventure, plus now any vandal can easily find their way to each glyph. What a steward of cultural heritage you are(insert sarcasm)!

Next!
