Hey John - Why are you taking this so personally ??? Did I ever pee in your corn flakes ??? Or are you an angry refugee from Train Orders ??? Please consider my experiences with Tacoma Watershed Cops to be one perspective only, although other foamers/hikers/fishermen/bottle hounds have described similar encounters with the cops.
Regarding Veasey pit, I was only relating what I was told on Saturday by a BNSF employee. They aren't always right, either.
Regarding Tacoma Hot Springs: I have heard of an Hot Springs that used to exist above Nagrom a few miles West of Lester; perhaps they were one and the same. I say WERE because Tacoma Watershed dynamited it to bits to prevent people from wanting to go there.
