Idoit on ATV

[FPH]

Get up at 3:30, walk two hour to get to a high meadow, your in a no motorized vehicle area, here cones an idiot on an ATV.  Hope he liked his walk back to camp.  Hope he gets the heck fined out of him.

unfortunately, that's everywhere nowdays.
some folks seem to have an internal switch
that flips once they leave the city limits
that makes all common courtesy go out
the window.
to me, it would be a tie between that and
the guys that get to camp and the truck
doors fly open and the stereo gets cranked
wide open.

The stereos and generators are prolific.  I had a high school classmate and his older brother  that got two vehicles stuck in a no motor vehicles allowed area.  The rangers got wind of it and made them hire a mule team to pull them out some 20 miles.

at least they do mix it up for what
little that's worth. last year and before
it was the 4 wheelers and the "who can
empty the newly purchased glock the fastest"
contest.
this year has been the sxs's and the ar's.
i wouldn't mind so much if they did all that
crap some time other than peak deer hunting season.
the rest of the year they can run the top end out of
their atv's and burn the barrel out of their
guns and guzzle beer 'till they vomit. just
leave me my quiet time to deer hunt.

What ever happened to mules & horses?  Going to bed at dusk because you new how early you were getting up to HUNT.

or shank's mare?


some folks do things different.
i mostly hunt alone, or with just
a few select people i know that
hunt the way i do. when i come in,
gear gets tended to, fix something to
eat, arrange gear for next hunt, etc.


i can listen to loud music or get sloshed
in the comfort and safety of my own
home if i were so inclined.
i can't always hunt.
all the other crap can be done
any other time.

don't be too quick to judge.  In some states (well at least here in Oregon,) a disabled hunter with a permit can use an ATV in places where they're otherwise prohibited.

I cut folks a lot of slack.  I could qualify for disabled if I so chose to.  He was a healthy mid 20's kid.
