More on off road access
Posted by martentrapper on Oct 14 2005
I'm disappointed in you guys. No faith in your fellow man. Here we are on a website viewable from anywhere in the world. A website devoted to helping other hunters find a place to hunt in this state. All some of you can do is complain. Evil ORV users. Spoil it for every one.
At least one of you has your own private (well practically) hunting and trapping preserve in eastern Ak and most of your posts on this site are on the evils of other hunters. How do we know your not evil? Some of the rest of you just can't seem to stand anyone who wants to hunt in a different manner than you. Apparently if you can't, or don't want, to walk in you don't deserve to hunt. As a federally qualified subsistende user, maybe I should be concerned about all you urban guys driving up the haul road and competing with my fellow fed qualified users. According to Mark's post, you urban guys take the majority of bou up the dalton. I sure hope the fed subsistence board is watching you urban hunters. Your evil. I don't trust you to obey the law. There's only one cop up there. He ain't enough. Let's get all of you out.
I live in a town with 3 dead end roads. Each road is 80 miles long. I can stop just about anywhere on that road and dump off a 4 wheeler and go........well, at least if a river, mountain, heavy brush, ditch, swamp, or some other natural obstacle doesn't stop me. There are no regs currently preventing me, and 3000 or so other people from using off road vehicles here. Nobody even gives a concern about the anadromous fish worry. Despite this access, hunting is pretty good here. We have a good F&G advisory committee, capable bio's, decent law enforcement. We even have evidence that our moose population is OVER ABUNDANT, tho it has come down from the early 90s. Plenty of griz to hunt, bou come around periodically..........and, AND, you can stop just about anywhere around here, look around, and our country is SCENIC. Very scenic. I would challenge any of you to come out to the Seward Pen. and say otherwise.
I don't live in Fbks, or drive the haul road, or hunt over there. You guys can fight and point fingers all you want. I don't care. I can look around where I live, and see that some of you are just jealous the other guy might ruin your little spot. Some of you are just plain selfish!
Mark (the one in wasilla) come on out to Nome and borrow my 4 wheeler.
Heck........bushrat, you can come try it out too!
