Re: Guide and photos

I believe I’m with david m and neogeo on this one. Sure, DCHS is a public place and it’s designation as “clothing optional” means just that – clothing is an option. However, over the years the uniqueness of the clothing optional/nude tradition of DCHS has seemingly been over shadowed by an increasing amount of clothed and wet suited individuals, especially on the weekends. Some of these people seemingly have no respect for the environment and if not for the diligence of the local care takers, this place would be just one more trashed area. As neogeo said, the lay-out is quite striking but I am afraid that one more article in the press will only entice more textilian individuals to frequent this oasis. I also would like to see more information in the article indicating that many people who visit DCHS typically enjoy the springs in truly a “natural” way. Those of us who are invested in keeping these springs natural and pristine, are, for the most part, no-clothes individuals. There are very few public areas in Southern California where nudity is welcome; besides Black’s Beach, DCHS is one of those areas.
