    Ticks and scumbags, Princeton/surrounding area

    Scouting up this way this weekend, will have boots on the ground for pretty well the whole 3 days. For anyone that spends time up there how are the ticks, and how about vehicles being damaged/broken into?

    Thanks in advance for any info Gents!

    You will certainly be flickin ticks off! Scumbags should be scarce though.

    I would think that the scumbag pecentage would be highest the closer you are to the lower wasteland

    The scumbags abound in 2022 my friend, there are people like that all over now. But yes soddom and gomorrah (lower wasteland) definitely is flooded with them!

    With your attitude please stay home.
    Never got a tick in princeton yet...and never had any issues...if your hunting bear go to higher elevation and ticks will be less present...and price of gas most scumbags are still in the lower mainland.

    Just asking because some areas in region 5 are notorious for natives damaging any non native vehicles rendering them inoperable and stranded, other places in region 8 for people raiding camps and thieving. Or like last Remembrance Day when a car drove my Dad over and dragged him up the mountain right before my eyes while I jumped out of the way of the vehicle and they broke his back and neck and leg and gave him brain damage and me stranded.

    Was just asking how the area is for leaving my vehicle on the side of an FSR for three days straight

    Not trying to make a snarky reply, just where i'm coming from if I came off like a pos, thanks for the heads up! Won't be hunting Bear but have been thinking about picking up a tag

    No, I don't think they ever will be. Unless maybe someone rats someone out.

    He is really good all things considering I thought he was going to be brain dead for life. But his brain is back to normal besides forgetting words sometimes and his swallowing food is not all there (some brain throat connection problem), other than that my Dad is my Dad again hahah but his leg he won't be hiking much or at all this year.

    But when it happened (dark/snowing) I couldn't find him and thought he was dead for sure
