Returned to see if my Colorado buck was still tied to a tree

[LuckyMike]

I returned to my hunting unit in Colorado 5-days before the second rifle season opened to see if the buck I had scouted up in August was still tied to the tree.


This is the guy that was there in August.

But now he is gone!


This is what I found less than 100-yards away instead!!!!! In a a NO VEHICLE TRAVEL ZONE!!!!

Welcome to the motorcross park aka Colorado.

During our 2nd season elk hunt in Colorado this year, I was awakened on the morning we were to pack camp out to the sound of 4-wheeler engines......we were in a wilderness area

Found it later parked 20 yards off the trail in some pines not hidden very well

Mean while CPW wonders why license sales are down. If a person wanted to be in in a motor cross race they'd head for the Baja.

Above said ATV would not have been left in pristine condition, fact.

No bueno. Pictures. License/tag numbers. Turn em in. Should any accidents occur out there, would be unfortunate for the ATV owner...

GPS coordinates were politely given to the sheriff and warden who where ironically chatting at the gas station just down the road from the trail head. Not sure if they checked it out but I did what I could, a tire or two may have low air pressure also

Forgot to mention that I took about a dozen pictures of these guys thru my spotting scope and then went directly to the closest F&G office. They took all the pictures off my flash card and sounded like they were serious about nailing these guys. Still, it was not a good start for my second season Colorado deer hunt.

Don't know what I would do if I found a wheeler where my bull lives in the wilderness area. But I have less than a month to think of options.

I can already nearly guess what happened to all the above ATV gay wads. Are you ready?










Nothing.

....survey says...raise NR tags prices a couple grand & throw in a fishing license and vanity plate for the ATV.

I'm shocked that both riders appear to be overweight

So now we're profiling fat people??? I may resemble that remark....

 

[havgunwilltravel]

Did you keep hunting him? I would assume he is alive even though a couple atv's are there!

Must be frustrating I know.

My first thought as well....and it seems for some odd reason to be a trend.

I for one cant figure out why someone would rather spend 10k for a atv/utv instead of 3-400 for a great pair of boots....

Because a good pair of boots does not do a fat slop any good, as they won't use them anyway. Someone that does that kind of thing had just as well have Wal Mart Hermans.

I'm fat. I bet I out weigh either of the guys in the pic. All this fat bashing is giving me a complex...

 

[noharleyyet]

Yo'd think one of them skinny game wardens could catch em.

But skinny a$$ed ATVer just doesn't have the same sting

 

[sreekers]

I chewed out a guy on an ATV last weekend, it was brutal the places he was going....
