    Re: Elephant Hill Fire Area closed to all motorized vehicles

    Last season, when things opened up, there still were a "few groups" of quad hunters who
    supposobly said "they hadn't heard" of the ATV ban. (until we told them)
    On top of that, another group, who we saw on a quad as we drove in for the few days to hunt
    early on on the road into where we camp, came to camp, with the quad in the box.
    Later. I told them, that no quads allowed, and they responded "that they weren't on quads",
    but, "we had just seen that they were on their quads".

    I don't know how they stop it??
    Easiest is to just ban the ATV's for a few years up there, which is then much easier to "regulate",
    then saying "these roads in pink" are off limits.
    That won't work worth S***.
    Best way is totally tear up the area so quads cant get in!.
    I don't think many of the fire perimeters are accessible by "truck" from what I saw, especially when the snow
    hits (although that could be after the MD season ends...lol).
    But the ATV can!

    One last thing, and we need to start screaming about louder to the ministry is:
    if the FN are "really concerned" about the future of their wildlife, they too, have to
    "conform to the same bans"
    Otherwise to me, all they ever say about being concerned, is utter BS!
    So far I can only confirm that when they do get involved, it is generally self serving.

    Time for them to "really join the cause" and "support the same bans" as everyone else!
    But I know already, they wont!

    You can't patrol for these abusers on atv's all day long, it costs money to have Officers working. Other priorities as well some even more crucial.
    We need to rat these abusers out to our Ministry, secret meeting Hahaha
    -- These abusers are in every area not just Elly Phont Hillz
    Jel -- Some come out at night and drive around with cell phones and what not? -- while your lilly white ass is in bed.

    I'll personally be going to pick some mushrooms on this area. I won't be paying $20 or $30. I'd love to be confronted by anyone besides official law enforcement officers. I am not a mushroom picker either, but just the principal of it is going to bring me out, heading out there Tuesday with a few friends. If they think I can't utilize crown land they can definitely go **** themself.

    I see nothing on TNRD or BC Wildfire... I call BS
    I like drinking beer and whiskey, shooting guns, jetboating, love a nice rack and a tight line, I am simply a sophisticated redneck...
