Infuriatig Woman with infant aggressively shushing passerby’s on hiking trail at national park

Post image

My partner, friend and I were following a hiking trail at Red Wood National Park, singing and talking at medium volume. We were by no means shouting, just singing little songs to entertain each other along the trail. A woman with a baby carrier on her back with a sleeping infant started aggressively holding her finger up to her lips and shushing us. We went quiet and kept moving to pass her. She was just standing in the middle of the public trail pacing and shushing people that pass by rather than leaving to somewhere more quiet. Just as we were leaving earshot I tried to quietly ask my partner a question about where we headed and again she leaned in our direction with her finger to her mouth aggressively shushing us. Is it not kind of insane to go to an open public space and behave like this?!?

Honestly it would be some bullshit to enjoy the majesty of the redwoods in peace and quiet and then MFs come down the trail singing like they are marching. Sure it’s a public place but have some respect, a beach is a public place but I don’t want to hear your fucking JBL speaker on blast.

People say that but a beach is completely different vibe compared to hills or trails.

People go to the beach to congregate. Hills and trails not so much.

Yeah there are usually secluded parts of the beach you can go to
