I have seen that very same pole at Stone Mountain, it's been covered in gum as long as I can remember! I believe there are two other poles with less gum somewhere on the trail. Oh my gosh!

This is really gross, and being a nature lover and hiker myself, I'm glad I haven't come across one of these in my outings. Man, some of those are so high up there that it looks like some folks REALLY had to put some serious effort into adding their little bit. Ick.

Believe it or not, there was what locals in the Denver area referred to as the "Gum Tree" at the old Elitches amusement park in Denver Colorado. There was this tree that stood next to the "Splinter" a log ride of sorts. Rumor has it that the staff tried several times to rid the tree of the gum with little sucess so they gave up. The gum tree was absolutely covered with thousands of pieces of chewing gum in every imagineable color. It always made evryone waiting in line laugh while succinctly turning your stomach. Ha!
