It’s touron season! Touron is a derogatory term combining the words “Tourist” with “Moron” to describe any person who, while on vacation, commits an act of pure stupidity. And that’s what happened the other day when two men were caught on camera vandalizing ancient rock formations at the Lake Mead National Recreation Area. In the video we see the men callously pushing chunks of red stone off the edge of a formation, causing irreversible damage to a site that has taken millions of years to form.
… With over six million visitors annually, the park relies on public vigilance to protect its natural wonders. If the men are identified they face a hefty fine and jail time.
