5-12A Puntzi Lake FSR

Would appreciate some intel on Puntzi Lake FSR. Hunted there 10 years
ago. Is road passable, no gates, not deactivated?

thanks Gathto

I believe that draw only has a very small portion that is accessable to hunt by vehicles. Most of that zone is non-motorized. I would look at the regs and maps before putting in. There is a reason the odds are so good.....

Thanks Tinhorn. Wasn’t aware of that.

Enquiring minds should look at map E25 in the synopsis for details on the closure.

Well there goes that idea. Thanks for the help. Good luck on your LEH.

Ahhhh. It is refreshing to see that there are hunters on this site who are forthcoming in helping other hunters. Great job guys!

one would think the gub fktards could get the info onto the leh zone map https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/sports-recreation-arts-and-culture/outdoor-recreation/fishing-and-hunting/hunting/limited-entry-hunting/zone-maps/region-5/moose_5-11_12.pdf

Why? There’s nothing stopping a person from hunting there - just need a horse, pedal power, or lots of boot sole.

The problem with transposing data from one source to another is that changes to the original aren’t always captured in documents that reference the original (i.e., if the LEH maps contained motor vehicle closures, they would need to update them every time the MV closures change - think wildfires, FN issues, etc…). Static data like waterbodies and park boundaries are fine, because they rarely change. In the case of dynamic elements like MV closure boundaries and private land holdings, the onus is on outdoor users to verify across all sources what is or isn’t allowed.

If the government was expected to coordinate data between all sources, we’d foot the bill by way of increased taxes, which we’d all piss and moan about, so I’m happy to leave the legwork on myself.

But both Puntzi Mt and Satah Rd were in good condition last year
