Actor Pierce Brosnan pleaded guilty to an illegal hiking charge and agreed to pay a $1,500 fine for walking into a protected Yellowstone hot spring.
This comes nearly two months after the James Bond actor pleaded not guilty after he ventured off the permitted path at Yellowstone National Park in November 2023.
Pierce pled guilty to one of two illegal hiking charges brought against him after he allegedly attempting to get a closer look at thermals in the Mammoth Terraces section of the park, according to court documents filed Thursday.
The Mammoth Terraces are a popular feature in Yellowstone, constantly changing in color and activity.
Federal rules stipulate visitors to national parks must stay on the designated walkways. Venturing off the boardwalk is punishable by up to six months in jail and a fine of up to $5,000.
