In fact I don't even mention it in my post!<BR/>I'm concerned about La Perouse (and the fact that consequently Dumps is going to be way more crowded) and your comment unfortunately makes me think that I'm right... it won't be accessible anymore.<BR/>If I had known about the meetings, I would have gone for sure.<BR/>Thanks for your contribution.<BR/>It's July 3rd, We'll know the truth in 3 days.cammarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08319369737358774800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11399910.post-18639237506122167892008-07-28T11:30:00.000-10:002008-07-28T11:30:00.000-10:00If the surf spot you are concerned about is "dumps...If the surf spot you are concerned about is "dumps" then stop stressin. Access to dumps by surfers for surfing will still be allowed. Thanks to the 20 or so surfers who showed up at the meetings concerning the closure and expressed their concerns. They could have stayed home a wined about the closure, like many of you are.<BR/>Contrary to what many of you believe, living here for x amount of years does not make you local, and or educated about local resources.<BR/>Fact: DLNR Administrators are politically and financially orientated BS artists. Most of the DLNR front line, field personnel are underpaid, self motivated professionals with their fingers on the pulse of these resource and conservation issues.

No hiking in the area between Dumps and LP, but ok driving to LP parking... what kind of idea is that?<BR/>Nobody hikes there, since it's all sharp lava rocks and there's no room to park the car along the narrow road... doesn't make sense to me.<BR/>Anyway, we'll find out in ten days I guess... in the meantime, I stay worried.<BR/><BR/>Meesh, great point. Everytime I drive by those ugly "luxury homes" I feel like puking. And more are about to come.

Shows no hiking in the ocean, well I can live with that - does this mean surfboards are OK I wonder??<BR/>http://hawaii.gov/dlnr/dofaw/nars/reserves/maui/ahihikinau<BR/>I also wonder why they didn't want to preserve all of the land that is no different from Wailea to Dumps where all those brand new massive multi million dollar gigantic homes just went up. You can bulldoze the land, you just can't walk on it, or surf in the water around it.

The only sailable spot was logo high and 200 yards long, but the "road" was closed by bureaucratic bullshit... 2 guys sailed a mile to get there, dodging rain squalls, nasty currents, and sharks.
