...or should I say irresponsible riders of ATV's.
I was out bear hunting this morning and traveled through a mess of camp sites along the road. I was surprised how many ATV's were in nearly every camp site. Luckily this morning I heard none of them where I was hunting, but on the way out, WOW.
Axl and I were pretty thirsty, so I stopped at the first stream access. While I was there hydrating, some ass-clown (is that term patented yet?) from just across the stream pulled his ATV into the stream and started driving down the middle of it. Not thinking, I didn't take a picture. After about a mile down the road I decided to come back and at least get some pics for you guys.
When I arrived the second time the ATV herd had grown and now several of the vermin were in the creek. I stopped on the bridge to get some shots, but they new something was up and they pulled out of the creek. Big deal, they were still breaking the law by traveling off-road in a restricted area.
Here was the start of another illegal trail that should look pretty permanent by the end of the weekend.
And here is a nice ramp.
Actually these riders headed away from me were doing nothing wrong, but I couldn't resist. Between the three of them I am sure they were over the 1/2 ton mark.
BTW, this is about two miles from the stream incident and the guy behind me followed me after watching me take pictures. I thought it might be interesting to pull over and clean my rifle along the road since I had taken a shot earlier in the morning, but that is another story. hint, hint, there is a dead bear in my pick-up as well.
