This is what folks are asking about gates going up . I figure it is same reason they were put up at Nimrod a few years ago . When budget for federal government was not passed the nonessential services shut down .Till it was passed the refuges and government parks were locked down. Wonder why they waited so long up there ? Really stinks if it ever happens again as we paid to build them with our taxes and now pay for the right to use them .:mad::mad::mad::mad:
