    I can confirm this...

    there were 2-3 women that were definitely very fit and had all the right curves in the right places.

    there were others that were a shape, just not in shape...

    Guilty. But yeah more naked old guys than anything else. After a while none of it matters anymore and the judging stops. I've met awesome people there, clothed and unclothed.

    This I can also confirm (naked old guys).
    We only did a stop to use the pit toilet and checkout the shower.
    We did not spend more than 30 minutes there, we had an agenda to get to the bat pole...

    I meant I'm guilty of being naked there. I've never been in a rush to get to the bat pole. Quite the opposite. I'm in a rush to to get to the springs.

    The park isn't closed actually. Most of the facilities are and some parking lots and secondary roads are. But the park is actually open.

    That's the red dirt part of the road that I hit last week right after it snowed. Became very slick, like driving on ice but it was muddy and not frozen. Didn't stop to take a pic because I was too concerned about sliding off the road. Was pretty harrowing feeling the truck decide to slide a foot or 2 in any direction.
