    Hmmm I have already had this discussion with indians last week NW of williams lake..politely informing I could not pick mushrooms..they had an agreement with RCMP and conservation service.
    I told them I did not leave crown land by 3 natives.l had very few morels..couple big brain mushrooms..contact RCMP..they left..no RCMP..hmm maybe I got lucky?

    That's pretty ballsy. I didn't think they'd be trying to get bingo money out of people like that. Myself I think I'll respect them on their land, but if they want cash it's going through their band office not handed over like a handout.

    Someday the courts will get around to drawing the lines in the rest of BC, we can only hope there are 'public' areas left

    I can understand the closure up there.
    In the past, the dirt bike clubs made trails into places they had no business being, imo.
    With that, the atv/orv hunters followed up those same trails.
    It is because so many of these users "get off the road" that we have this now!
    If the users had "all" stayed just on the roads, then maybe this wouldn't of happened.

    And another 2 years of it, I doubt it, might be like that for the next 10, imo.
    That being said, it was still the busiest season I have seen with hunters there in 35+ years up there.
    Thought between the 1 MD limit and the atv/orv closure, that tis would add up to possibly 50% less traffic, but,
    nope, busy as hell, regardless of those 2 new rules.
    R5 stays closed, and some R3 mu's get hit hard by hunters.
