There is a lot of narrow minded attitude displayed on this thread. I just like being outdoors, the less populated and more scenic the country the better. When I meet someone 5 miles from the trailhead, at that moment in time we are sharing an experience only known to others like us. I won't know or care if they approve of my intentions or methods. I see plenty of hunters every year that to me degrade the experience by using ATVs and radios and run generators and play loud music, to each their own. The west is a big place and I have most of it to myself in the winter so I predator hunt and rarely see of hear a soul. If your method of hunting is enjoyable and legal go for it w/ gusto no matter where you live.

Except Texas, those folks are strangegrin
