I tend to agree. I'm not sure if this is a result of lobbying effort to make the guides money, or if government-knows-best and doesn't want stupid little you getting lost in the wilderness... If its the former then a boycott is in order. If its the latter then I may eventually pony up the cash to hunt them. I'd like to take a mule deer out of that range someday but I think there are better places to get a bull elk.
