First-light Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 So I get up to camp last Thursday to do the spring cleanup. I walk down the road frontage I own and say to myself something is missing. Last fall I put up about 15 posted signs. The plastic ones on a slab of 12x12 wood. Well they were all taken. I just don't get it, then again I don't understand why some guys need to drive 60 mph past my camp on a dirt road. Talked to my neighbor about it and he told me the guy down the road had the same problem. Where my camp starts the road is seasonal. There is also a groomed sled path that is maintained throughout the winter. He thinks it was snowmobilers. I'm sure thats what they used to get in but who knows. Went out and bought the cheap signs and stapled them up. Good news is the camp started right up with little to no damage. Found two dead deer walking around. Saw a bunch of Turkey, grouse and some Woodcock. Wish I could of stayed for the opener! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy K Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 (edited) Not sure why snowmobiles would steal posted signs ,I'd be willing to bet it was someone local. Edited May 1, 2018 by Jeremy K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbHunterNY Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 if there's a groomed sled path then report it to the local snowmobile club that keeps it up. access is tough to keep so they spread the word and then everyone keeps a watchful eye. otherwise you can just put them back up. nonworking cams with dead batteries in them work as feeler bait to see if culprits are still around. usually you can figure out the time of year. if it's all year long you know it's someone local or with access to local land. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
