When I lived there in the mid 60s I remember seeing before and after pictures of many of the areas: most of the small stuff was gone. Originally many of the areas were carpeted with "splinters". They had rangers with binoculars watching many areas. Highlight of the year was 2 German tourists caught stealing pieces hidden in their bikinis. The last time I was there we pointed out to a ranger three tourists who were discussing what to come back and steal. All the parks have problems. By the way There is more really cool stuff in addition to this panel: not as concentrated as Newspaper Rock but more varied. DG
