Why?

Just venting. Took my kids for a ride today on a piece of stateland. I've been hunting this piece for 16years since its right next to my parents place.  Signs all over the place to stay on road, no shooting at turn around, theres a little gravel pit that has a no vehichle sign.  Its all damaged someone went muddying down all the ditches so it will be impossible to park out of the way this year without getting sucked down into the ruts. Someone took a quad into the pit cut a bunch of sapplings down and trashed the little pond.  Go up to the turn around and theres beer cans, shotgun shells, burnt tires, and even more tree cuts.  Kids kept asking why? All i could say is that some people dont use the lump 3ft above there a**.    Just drives me nuts and then those same people would be the first to complain if they kept gate shut all year.  

 

Sorry about rant. Feel better now.

Sorry about your hunting  spot. No need to apologize..we all need to vent...it serves to make others think.

Public land can be a major PITA. Far too many people thinking they can just do whatever they want on public land. There's a bicycle in a tree in Thacher Park, some use bait to hunt there, and no one cares. Charleston State Forest, they used to keep the partying on the pull off on Hughes Rd., not so much anymore. There's no shortage of people who go into nature, but have no respect for it. Your "rant" is not a rant. It's your feelings about how some people treat the outdoors.
