The toilet at Palm spring had not been pumped when we left there on Friday. Getting real full.

I called and E-mailed them already. I was just looking for confirmation before I call them again.

Probably not, but you can call the park service facilities department at 760-786-3272 and lodge a complaint. I've called. They need emptying.

Use the slingshots on the owners, not the dogs.

I don’t think “gentle asking” is gonna work. Like I said before, people already know the dogs are supposed to be on a leash. I’m up for the slingshot technique.

Not sure where anyone was suggesting poisoning dogs. I don't believe that's the solution either. Having a sling shot in camp goes a long way for conditioning animals (burros, coyotes, and now other canines) that raiding camps is bad. There is also an ample supply of rocks in the area. Most of the raiding burros and coyotes know the different disposition and posturing of humans who camp in the area.

I do not think that intentionally harming someone's dog is the right way to deal with this problem. In fact, I think the idea of spreading information about what is poisonous or only likely to cause distress or illness and suggesting it should be used is really, really sad.

Maybe some of these people need to be Bermanized.

Hippie Chris from Moab. He's camped midway between lower and Palm Spring in a white full size pick up and hardside camper with a wood burning stove. He was there last new years too. Apparently he's a vet who has some gulf one issues that can have him unable to move one week and then running up to the upper (natural) springs a few days later. Hmmm

Just fyi, re dogs... there is guy there that is staying there long term. I met him on new years. I forget his name, but he has a dog named Chief... Looks like a irish wolfhound. http://connsy.tgcsitechecker.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Irish-Wolfhound.jpg
Always off leash and owner no where to be found. Met them separately. I didn't know he was the owner. Anyways, the dog has been stealing food, clothing and harasses other dogs. So if you are going in this month look out. Apparently LL already told him to put his dog on a leash numerous times, but I guess some people get a pass and don't need to follow NPS rules.
