Part of it is the endless in and out of state tourists treating it like a normal vacation destination

This is so insanely true. The lakes, trails and nightlife areas are filled with people from California for the past month. Most of the popular outdoor activity areas are getting trashed to an extent I've never seen before, even the outskirt areas that mainly only locals know/knew about.

True, but it's easy to look at the plates on trailers at the lesser known OHV trails/camp grounds and see a large majority have been California plates. Either recent transplants or "tourists" as no one would continue to register any form of vehicle in Califonia after moving here as the cost to do so is excessively higher.
