It used to be a common theme in the 'Yorkshire Post' & 'Dalesman'[/i] magazine showing various repairs taking palce on the Pennine Way, Roseberry Topping & such.
It was always emphasised that the essential repairs to the paths were caused by walkers eroding them away.
Then, usually, the Ramblers Association (or such a body) was complaining about the use of mill-stone grit flags & how much they stood out, how it was restricting the width of the paths etc, etc.....

Make 'em walk in bare-feet, they'd tread carefully then :lol:

It's costing Snowdonia National Park 100,000's of pounds every year to repair footpaths on Snowdon, Cadair Idris, etc
It does not help that any material *has* to be airlifted.
One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors.

alteratively if they dont like whats being used to fix the paths just close them altogether untill they natrely recover think how long that would take.
Give them the alternatives
(A) put up
(B)shut up

Its different when the bobble hats cant access the land due to the damage they caused but supose they'll just blame it on other groups like mountain bikers,horse riders,off roaders etc
