Not really sure what you mean by this time of the year. Growing weed? poaching? harvesting shrooms? playing banjos? Thanks for the heads up though........ Be safe out there!! |

I talked to the Forest Service Ranger today.
They were not making meth................they were growing, duh. The sheriff's went to investigate. Ranger Nate was very interested in my report and he scrambled the local sheriffs office to the area to check things. They won't be growing anything there in the future. You don't need to make meth on a south facing slope in August. |

In the 710 sq. mi. Ocala NF where my fish camp is you have to pay $20 for a permit to cut firewood. It is only good for 30 days and only for one cord total. You can only cut in one tiny area that they have marked for that use. Do they enforce this type of PITA control over fire wood cutting in the NF where you harvest?
just wonderin? |

The last time I cut wood in AZ forest, it was a $10 permit and no limit. I took out several truckloads. They had already cut down the trees to thin the forest due to a recent fire/fire danger. All I had to do is cut them into cordwood and put them in the truck.

Unless your swamp buggy or sand rail is legally licensed and tagged/insured with DOT tires you're not legal anywhere in the forest. Quads, licensed jeeps and motorcycles have their own specifically designated areas. It's not like the old days anymore. Any attempt to have fun is highly regulated, strictly enforced and highly frowned upon by the kings land keepers. |

Some of the coolest vehicles and downright friendliest people I had ever seen/met were in that forest in the early 90's. I lived right on the river in volusia county.
We had a great time in sand rails and lifted trucks on 44's out there... Just about every weekend.....also used to enjoy watching the bombing range and shooting at the range up on 42 I think was the number.

Looked greasy and merciless.
I'm going back up into the Sierras for Sooty Grouse/Mountain Quail this Sept. Good luck to me. There are no safety rails or referees in the Sierras. It's every backpacking hunter for himself. Thanks for the added danger, potheads and Mexican Cartels. |

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you guys. And thanks for all the replies. This is no story, this is real, I respect this forum and I wouldn't lie to you gentlemen.
I did contact the law and I assume they checked it out. Never heard back from Captain Card. Today, bro and I returned to the ambush site and cleared it. We had our carbines with us. Circling in from above, we sighted a lean to shack deeper in the trees and approached very carefully. It was unoccupied, just a machete inside and some garbage. I looked for holes in the ground where they had pulled up thier plants but there had been a lot of trees downed in the last two weeks. Lots of sawdust, those guys probably covering their tracks. We cut trees, spraypainted logs and rocks, then left. I expected to find more. I plan to go back there soon and investigate further, but we couldn't focus on the ground too much being too busy scanning for hidden sketchers. Apparently they were gone. It was very strange and creepy to go back to that spot. Wish I knew more.... |
