In all National Forests with designated Grizzly recover areas, technically all meat and other attractants must hung 4 feet away from the bole of the hanging tree and be no less than 10 feet off of the ground. If the Agencies strictly enforced these regulations, they would run out of ticket books in short order. CP.
I wonder how many of the rulemakers have actually tried to get an elk quarter 10' off the ground. Now you're not talking about an 8' step ladder. Now you need a 24' extension ladder. If you want a meat pole, it will have to be a minimum of 15' high.
