    Can't be the only one who thinks this superbloom stuff is overrated, even as a seasoned hiker/nature lover. Always seemed underwhelming to me. Plus the amount of pollen in the air... I went to one when I was a kid and my god my eyes were red for days.

    Anyways, traffic isn't bad behavior. I mean, you go there, you didn't realize how many other people had the same idea, you try to leave, but then you clog up the lanes inadvertently. What are you actually supposed to do there.

    The helicopter incident though... that's just something else.

    Walker Canyon near Lake Elsinore, in Riverside County.

    I know that the policy is to match the headline but maybe there could be an exception for this kind of clickbait.

    Blatant clickbait is not welcome on Hacker News.
