    Doubt they will put an effort out to notify hunters. 4-33 is massive, plenty of access out of revy...
    The only advantage to a light rifle is it's weight, all other advantages go to the heavier rifle..

    Last time I was there was maybe 4 years ago ( after the rocks were cleared) no gates yet at that time ..... was going to take a trip over there this summer when the snow has melted (august)

    That should save a lot of goats and griz. Got my first goat on the Westfall when they hadn't finished the 2nd bridge yet. Had to wade the river.

    not fire concerns as much as maintenance and liability. It is in the plan...along with thousands of kilometers of other roads in the province. They actually will be upgrading bridges just to get equipment into areas to deactivate the roads

    I know the roads were deactivated due to liability concerns (BS) but now they are going to spend more money to re-activate the Duncan at least that's the rumour and I hope it's true .

    The only things we know for sure is that they will spend our money wantonly and they will redo (or undo) it all in the near future.

    Thanks for bringing the issue to light, now that info is out there!

    The animals are in there, how you get them is up to you.

    Not a lot of sympathy for those applying for LEH and not knowing what's up in whatever MU they apply in. Not everything can be done from a computer chair. Regs should not be made for the lowest common denominator. The whole off season can be dedicated to doing you homework.
