How Chipotle lost its sizzle

SEQUOIA AND KINGS CANYON NATIONAL PARKS, Calif. - National Park Service law enforcement rangers, in cooperation with special agents from the Bureau of Land Management, removed an illegal marijuana cultivation site in Sequoia National Park last week. A total of 2,377 full-grown marijuana plants and approximately 2,000 pounds of trash and infrastructure were removed by hand and helicopter sling-load operations. The site also contained a semi-automatic pistol and several hazardous chemicals, including about one gallon of Methamidophos, a highly toxic insecticide banned in the United States since 2009. Law enforcement rangers detected and raided this cultivation site in 2024, but the site was not rehabilitated until this year due to the presence of hazardous chemicals. No arrests have been made, and the investigation is ongoing. Please call the NPS-wide Tip Line at 888-653-0009 with any tips on illegal cultivation on park land.
