....them's the officers who wear those bright red uniform jackets similar to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. In 24-years here, have seen one of them just once, and that was in Heath's Hardware.

.....so's why not have the F&G charge a small amount like the three dollars/day placed into a steel deposit box similar to what the Forest Service does....to make some revenue to help F&G maintain the facility? If F&G can raise the fishing license from $35 to 45 on 1/1/16, then they could charge three dollars/day-$20/yr-sticker price to use the ramps. A small fee which could go a long way to help power up the F&G.
