[QUOTE="orion2000, post: 582994, member: 32578"] Bingo... If you shoot a bear/cat/moose without a tag, HUGE fines, loss of weapons, vehicles etc... Why not enact same/similar fines for irresponsible ORV use ??? Caught with an ORV where you are not supposed to be ? Huge fine, loss of ORV.... I am a 54 year old flat lander from 800 ft elevation. I use an ATV in Colorado to drive 10 to 12 miles, on established roads, from our cabin to parking areas. Then pack in 2 to 3 miles, 500 to 1000 ft vertical, to hunt. Twice this year I hiked in past the last of the horse hockey, and past the last of the boot prints in the week old snow. Tired of hearing the lame talk about [B]ALL ATV[/B] riders are lazy slobs destroying everything. If someone breaks the law bust 'em. Make the penalties Draconian to the point that you scare the Bee Jeepers of potential offenders. IF they do break the law, make examples of them. Don't make life miserable for everyone because of the few. As mentioned above, the hiking on foot vs horse back vs ORV vs Truck is simply an easy "divide and conquer" strategy for the anti-hunters... No different from the lead bullet/shot versus copper/tungsten. Same strategy as (save our children) Hand guns versus (evil black) assault rifles versus sporting weapons... We have enough knuckle heads outside the hunting community trying to shut us down. We do not need to be providing them with ammo to use against us... [/QUOTE]
