I used to really like Pineview. I could drag my kayak down to launch from several places without using the paid ramps. Then they blocked off all those places. The concessionaire company is so greedy that they are trying to find a way to charge seagulls for landing on the water. Add it up and they are collecting over two grand a day just at Pineview - not to mention what they must be getting at Strawberry. It must total a couple million every year just in launch fees. Then they complain that they can't afford to do ramp maintenance.
The Forest Service does not care. They're just happy they don't have to manage it themselves. That would take manpower and money. Instead, they can shrug their collective shoulders and claim to provide a recreational resource.
