That sounds like a bum deal, IBspoiled.  By the sounds of it, these guys weren't leaving their camp for nothing.  Surprised you guys just didn't move to avoid a conflict.  Sometimes, even though you're not in the wrong, an outdoorsman/woman just bites the bullet and moves on.

I can guarantee the feds would have been very interested in that kind of behavior going.on back in the wilderness. Numerous fed and st laws broken. Not much difference betweem them and some pot growers on fed land. They could have been gentlemen sportsmen and everyone could.have made new friends. Instead they intimidated and threatened you, a woman in the bc. Go tell the fs where the goods are stashed. They will remove it all and perhaps fine those schmucks.

or move it a few hundred yards away, exposed to the elements, sprinkle with bacon grease and let the critters have at it.

We didn't have the option to move as we had a wall tent set up that we had packed in with our horses.  We had taken our horses back out and left them home for the hunt. 

Ran into the guy again this year.  We camped on a completely different ridge, he walked right through our camp on the 2nd day.  I (wife) was in camp as I had gotten a cold and was having a rough day.  He was civil, but you could tell disappointed we were there.  I guess he owns the whole woods!  Ran into him again in the woods with my husband a few days later and he tells us that we are still putting salt out!  He says it's illegal and told us last year he was going to turn us in.  My husband told him it wasn't illegal or we wouldn't do it.  We only put salt out in the early summer to get game camera pictures anyway.  He said he didn't agree with it.  I wanted to tell him  storing stuff in the woods IS illegal and leaving camp a mess is unethical, but didn't want to start anything, so I kept my mouth shut.  When we walked away my husband said, You should have told him that!   :bdid:
