DEM employees direct traffic into Colt State Park mid-afternoon Saturday. Perfect May weather brought crowds to the recently reopened park – early in the afternoon, the line of cars stretched from the entrance shack (just around the circle here) clear back beyond the East Bay Bike Path. Inside, the park, people mostly seemed to keep to small groups, behavior encouraged by the fact that all of the park's hundreds of picnic tables are stacked and tied together to prevent their use.
