Has There Been a Reduction in Smell Near La Jolla Cove?

Do you think the gate, which was recently installed near La Jolla Cove to allow human movement onto the cliffs where sea lions and birds usually lounge, is partially responsible for a reduction in the smell?

The idea is that if people are walking on the cliffs, the animals will not stay so long and the smell will diminish. A second thought is that the usually high surf may have washed off some of the animal waste.

What do you think? Has the smell improved and why? Tell us in the comment section below.
