IIRC, didn't 50¢ of that fee go towards rescue costs?

Before they start taxing (sorry, fee-ing) paddles, oars and swim noodles, you'd think F&G would look at costly rescue activities.

Although one or two rescued hikers have cheerfully coughed up the thousand$ that visitors cost the State for their rescues, how much goes uncollected?
