It’s weird how you want the beauty, but don’t seem to understand how it stays that way.
It’s maintenance. It’s user fees to fund maintenance.
You may think that’s socialist, but really it’s not. Proper socialism would be a portion of income tax being allocated toward funding a maintained park without added user fees for residents.
It’s usually cheaper overall for people using the park, but people who don’t use the park complain about their taxes being used to foot the bill; the same as they complain about paying for fire protection service they don’t use.
One use of the taxes is to preserve the beauty and make it available to everyone except where it’s too fragile.
A lot of the regulations exist to mitigate the evils caused by massive concentrations of humans, like air pollution.
But hey, you go ahead and stay where you are. That’ll keep a place open for another of the many people who move away, experience life in those other states, and then come home again.
Prefer to spend your time outdoors? I’m not sure about other states and countries, but in CA your library card can get you free entry to state parks!

The more I learn about Cali’s laws and taxes the less I want to live there, which sucks because the landscape can be so beautiful
