[QUOTE="aspenbugle, post: 822716, member: 6481"] I agree. It seems crazy to allow 4x4s and not ATVs..that does seem prejudicial. I also agree, there are bad apples driving all kinds of vehicles, and 4x4s do their share of damage as well sometimes. However, I'm just relaying what I see hunting now, here, in Colorado...90% of the abusers are on ATVs. Definitely folks in 4x4s doing bad at times, but not nearly as much as I see from ATVs. I'm just upset that they will get banned, and when I want to use one to retrieve an animal, I won't be able to...because too many people lacked the ethics to not tear around all over the forest. I also don't like an ATV "highway" to what used to be an almost secret meadow, that used to take some time and work to get to on foot...now everyone can see and follow the illegal trail to a meadow that isn't remotely secret now, nor filled with game. What they really need is enforcement. Game wardens and Forest Rangers are just spread way too thin to cover such big areas and ever catch these guys. I'd like to volunteer on some of the seasons I'm not hunting, to get sworn in temporarily and go sit some of these trails and catch and ticket these guys. You pass out enough hefty fines along with raising the odds they will be caught...the behavior will change. [/QUOTE]
