[QUOTE="Chadp82, post: 2240767, member: 114151"] I have only hunted in state, but even at that I have seen in and out of state hunters that are unpleasant. I will say I encounter more friendly people than not. I usually stop and like to talk. I in no way ask or expect someone to give up their honey hole, but will ask what they are seeing. They don’t have to share. If I have a deer tag and they have an elk at maybe we can help each other, that’s the kind of conversation I am looking for. If we both have elk tags, it’s more to see if there is game in the vicinity, but I respect the fact if they are seeing them and I am not I don’t pry to find where. I had a guy one time at the parking area for the national forest access who I said hello, he said hi. Then I asked what he was hunting and if he was seeing anything. He responded and said “I was minding my own business and you bothered me. I didn’t ask you so don’t ask me” or something like that. He was a Colorado guy too based on his license plate. I have no issue with visitors, although in certain areas it increases road hunting and makes me work harder and hike further in. I will stop and say hi to anyone unless it is on my way in for the morning and I am working to beat the sunrise to my spot. Heck, if I tagged out, I will spill all the beans on what/where I have seen things :) [/QUOTE]
