Take a look at the place. It is very secluded if they only close a couple of roads. It's in the middle of a national park, and they admit to closing it on occasion for "security". You'd have to be sure to know which road to go to if you expected to be seen by the attendants, and that presumes they don't arrive by helicopter.

If there had been time, one might have been able to go to court to get "walking priviledges" around the perimeter road, where you'd be close enough to be heard. But on this short notice, I'm not sure what can be accomplished.
