[One of the facebook hunting groups I'm a member of has some guys who parachute into places like that and get picked up with helicopters.
WTF?! 102nd Airborne Hunters?! For real?? The skydiving part sounds nothing short of retarded but a member here documented his use of a chopper to access public land after he drew a tag. The bird not only got them in and out, but it hauled their elk in the round and dropped it into the bed of their pickups. It was cool. they are ex-military. They do the jumping because they can.

Much land access has been lost to the public, because of vandalism and failure to leave gates as they were. Many out here are spread too thin to babysit every hunter. Yeah, for every story a hunter has about a rancher, there's a story a rancher has about hunters... Gates left open. Windmills and water tanks shot up. Trespassing. Littering. Fences driven over, or cut. Cattle or other livestock shot. And on and on.... Respecting the rights of others goes both ways. Absolutely. Non of which excuse a corksucking piece of shidt from running hunters off public land. Should be a hanging offense. Half the public land "hunters" should be runnoft. Lol. Probably quite a bit of truth to that.

Ran into a a real asswhole awhile back. He was young and had inherited his grandfathers ranch. I was on an obvious two track road that was clearly legal to travel per the law.
He jumped out all bowed up “I’m the RANCHER, I’m the RANCHER”
I said “Oh, you’re a public land rancher? How you doing, i’m a public land hunter.”
Don’t blow smoke up my ass and I’ll do the same. I think I know exactly who you are referring to. Kinda NE of Carlsbad a little way. I've had business with him. Pretty pushy for someone who never had to work for what he has and has no appreciation for it. Ed Mobley

We have had to run people off of our block management land for fee hunting. Wow,talk about a set of balls.

I’ve had this conversation too. The “rancher” was sorely mistaken about the meaning of free range. You can fence your place as much and whenever you want, but if you don’t, he’s right that his cows can have the run of it. He argued further that if we didn’t put a cattle guard on our highway access that we were liable when his cows became traffic fatalities. I was fine with a wire gate and a sign, but he buffaloed the neighbors into installing a cattle guard.
In return for his stewardship of the public lands, I try to thin out those jackrabbits eating “his” grass.
Bigger problem was two yahoos who pulled up beside the house in the dark, sat there on private property watching the BLM, even after they were asked to leave. Eventually leaned out and shot a cow elk, drove out and picked it up, all gone but the gutpile by the time the warden showed up.
Sister was there alone. She knows to get the license number now.
Calvin Coolidge had a very low post count too.

Ted Turner has a pretty good sized piece of BLM landlocked at his Montana holdings and he doesn't let anyone have access to it. Actually BLM and Forest Service landlocked pieces are pretty common in Montana. I recall that 30 years or so ago there was a Sportsmans coalition trying to get something done about alloseing access to BLM/Forest Service land but I don't think it ever got anywhere. Near Boise, Idaho there is a Texas landowner who has a Forest Service road gated and will not let anyone through, there have been complaints about it to the Forest Service but the last I read it was still gated. It cut off a lot of hunting access near the Boise area. https://www.ktvb.com/article/news/l...o-wildlife-federation-says/277-618544197drover One of the facebook hunting groups I'm a member of has some guys who parachute into places like that and get picked up with helicopters.

I’ve taken at least one locked gate off it’s hinges before. I like the barb wire gates with a lock on one end and barely a strand of wire holding it together on the other. And then let all the cattle out... Just chase 'em around with a 4wheeler until they're plum tuckered out, they won't go nowhere's then.

To me, it appears that they're sending a message to azzhole landowners that they won't be locked out of public land.
