Misanthropology

This picture was taken in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee. There were lots more signs exactly like this all over the trail. Personally, I think it’s a sad day when people think “the great outdoors” needs to have warning labels affixed to it. I’m also irked by the appalling redundancy in the sign’s wording. Aren’t all cliffs, by definition, both hazardous and dangerous?

And in this sort of situation, if a person can’t determine for themselves that there is a hazard, shouldn’t we just let events run their course?
