Big difference between an e-bike and an atvThat's what the motorheads said about ATVs.
E-Bike legality in Montana.

Evolvement of ease of access doesn't distinguish. (Trail physical impact has not been the central topic.)

What if people used them only for retrieval purposes. I work with a guy that has one set up with a game cart. He didn't use it when he killed his elk but used it for hauling it out. Would more people be ok with the sole purpose of retrieval or not used at all.

Yes, the trailer is the first option on the list. The one i am looking at has a 200 lb weight rating.
This is part of it for sure. Not everyone has the means or capability of maintaining horses and mules year round for their pack string.

Well like it or not e-bikes are here and they are only getting more and more popular. Wheather they will ever be legal behind gatted roads, we will have to wait and see.
Thankfully not everyone is against them, some are definitely for them.

You misunderstand. It is not opposition to e-bikes per se; it is the designation as "non-motorized" thus allowing them in some areas where trails are open only to non-motorized.
This is the October 22, 2019 media release from BLM. The earlier version was posted a few months back.
Good read. I believe in Public Lands in Public Hands and if this was defined as a 60+ and ADA tool, I would be in support of the intention. Outside of that, I believe able bodied should continue with non motorized methods.

"Right before light, a father hunting with his two sons walked up the trail behind me. He came up and said he didn’t want to get in front of me. We were on public land. At that moment, a quote from T.R. came into my head: “We do these things for the generations within the womb of time.” I told them to go ahead of me. There were three generations on that mountain all participating in the pursuit of a restored deer and elk population. " - Jim Posewitz
If I'm so lucky as to live to 76 I likely will still want to venture into the woods, but I wont try to destroy hunting opportunities for future generations in order to allow me to do so. I've been given many gifts, many moments in the woods. I've had more than my fair share of quality hunts.
Let someone else walk the trail, you're had your turn.

No.
There are plenty of roads, plenty of places that you can hunt from a truck let alone with a game cart. Leave the wild areas the f- alone.
Agree - though more Millennials from my perspective.Boomer entitlement. A result of having it too good and too easy for too long.
We need the peddle assist to get a week’s worth of avocados to elk camp.

I don't get the millennial's hate in society.
Yea, lazy people! The same people that get on here and ask where the best spot to hunt is, on their first post.
