Also I think a lot of the traffic is bikers headed down highway 66.
So at least when I was leaving there were lots of cars but very low density of people.
What will cause issues though is the number of clearly separate homes hiking in non-spaced groups. If the 10 or so groups that I would suspect being from separate homes only 1 was socially distanced.

Those people just see some things opened up and government says numbers are down so they figure they can resume normal social activities.
Besides it's too much effort to maintain distance during a grueling hike!
We'll probably see the effects of all these low key group outings in a month or so.
