Berdoo has a gate too.
Only been that way once so I wasn't sure. If they actually close the gates that pretty much limits access. You can get around the Thermal Gate, but I probably wouldn't suggest it. No way around the Old Dale Gate. It's cliff on one side and wall on the other pretty much. Sounds like they're going to open it back up though.

Society fucking sucks. We were having this conversation on TW in the Death Valley thread about how people feel so fucking entitled that they only care about themselves. It's these same people that are trashing the national parks right now in droves because nobody is looking over their shoulders.
