I wonder how many people visit because of U2.

The Queens of the Stone Age are well known to be from that area as well for what it’s worth.

Hard to say. This person had stories from the early and late 80s so I couldn't use them as a reference. It sounded like a ghost town and they were definitely doing things that folks don't do in parks. The more recent person was working there in 2023 and had very different stories.

Thanks! I've been a few times over the years but not before it received park status in mid 90s. From what I hear, it was a bit of mecca for psychedelic enthusiasts. Its a lot more touristy these days, but that money really helps the conservation efforts (or at least it used to sigh). Still tons of great camping and climbing!
