That, and they were holding festival concerts that were damaging the stones. So they seriously clamped down. The nice thing about that tour is there was only about 25 of us total - we were there after the park closed to the public. 12/13 people got to go in at a time while the others wandered around the grounds about 10-15 feet away like everyone who comes during the day does. Then switch. Even so, we were told not to touch the stones.
