Road Closures 6-24?

[bcairo]

Anyone have any information on road closures in Area 6-24? Last year there were a number of roads closed off HWY 37 by the Good Hope/Dease FN and wondering if anything has changed?

LOL...read the press release...it has nothing to do with the new regs. They won't be applicable because the season may be closed.

I guess the reg changes weren't restrictive enough for the locals.
The fire BS worked down south so I guess they'll give it a go up there.
Still lots of unburned hunting areas for EVERYONE!

I agree lots of area,

"The Tahltan Central Government is concerned about the safety of all hunters and is respectfully asking resident hunters and others to refrain from hunting
throughout Tahltan territory until such time as the state of emergency has been lifted, the fires are contained and the damaged to
the region's wildlife can be properly assessed. Many of the local Tahltan families and hunters will refrain from hunting and are encouraging others to do the same.
The Tahltan homelands encompass WMU 6-19 to 26 and 7-52"

"President Day's letter to the province states : The Tahltan Nation is requesting that the Province support our position by formalizing a temporary hunting ban with the Tahltan territory for this hunting season "

So what do they want ?....A complete hunting ban in thousands of square kms?...I understand around Telegraph creek and an area around Lower Post but what about the rest of the area ?...Its huge ...This closure is just BS....What about all the flyin hunts ..for sheep caribou and moose ?...Respect the burned areas but the rest should stay open!....Dennis

I don’t think the ban is in effect is it? It’s just a request.
