Caves that are little known and are way back in the boonies
seldom need gates (if ever).
Caves that are well known, in site of paved roads, near large
populated areas, or have
regular tourist visits (such as in parks), are the caves that are
most likely to need gates or some other kind of protection.
The likely hood of vandalism increases with the number of people
who are aware of a cave's location. Vandals are opportunists.
Therefore it is necessary to eliminate the opportunity to vandalize
caves which are well known and easy to get to.
