“The irony is this week was browse wars where we encourage the feeding of natural vegetation which is spread all over now,” officials said on Facebook.
In addition to downed trees, park leaders said they are still without power.
Officials said they hope to have the roads cleared enough to encourage guests to visit the park so that the organization can continue to earn money to make the necessary repairs to the property.
