Is this legal?
Checking out reviews for a state park we plan to stay at and one of the newer post said that they pruned the branches so they could open their slide. Is that allowed?

A branch here, a branch there, everything ends up being in someone's "way" if you squint and look at it just right (or don't look at all and back right into it). Before long the tree has a disease from stress, or is lopsided and prone to wind damage. Either way, it gets cut down and the park is a little worse because of it. Maybe another tree will take its place in 50-60 years, the great grand children can enjoy it.
Time for wieners and s'mores at the campfire, send the kids into the brush to snap off saplings or limbs from small trees. Way easier than picking up a package of bamboo sticks at Wally World. Oh, have the little buggers peel as many birch trees as they can find, I forgot to bring old news paper along to start the fire. That tree doesn't need its skin to protect it from insects and disease.
A few more tire tracks in the Utah desert, so what, it won't make any difference. Without the bio-crust protecting the lighter soil underneath, the wind and rain will carry that soil away, making the tracks into ruts, that may never fill in naturally... it's a new feature, come see the majestic SUV ruts.
