If Mark would just answer his phone or answer a text we could a least be closer to some closure of this situation. I'm pretty sure he has Hunt Wa  site info by now?



How many times have you called him? What does he owe us? :dunno:



His eye sore is stuck on public property is it not ?  Lost count on number of calls?

A brand new jeep stuck on the side of a mountain, what does a new jeep cost- $30,000? It can't just be left there forever. Come on. And the helicopter option? Not even an option in my opinion. It's just ridiculous to think that a helicopter should be used, if there's any possible way it can be driven out of  there. It's already so close to the highway, it only makes sense to go down with it if that's possible. Why would the landowner even care? Fix whatever damage that may occur and throw in a couple hundred bucks on top of that. If I were the landowner I'd try to help the guy out as much as possible. He did a dumb thing and got himself in quite the predicament. Now it's time to get it off the mountain in the easiest and cheapest way possible. I would hope that most people would do what they could to help him out. I know I would.

The reason that jeep is still on the mountain is Liability. 

The state is not going to let him and his buddy take it out.  If him or his buddy gets injured/killed, the state could be held liable because they allowed it to take place.  The risk is too great and the risk is known by all.

If I am a landowner I would not allow him to drive out on my property if my property had a dangerous incline to it.  He dumps it on my property and gets injured, I am could be held liable. 

Sorry folks, this is going out by professionals and if that professional is smart, they will run it by their insurance before they attempt the extraction.  I would bet the state is saying the same thing but the owner does not want to follow the state's guidelines because it is too much money for him to pay.  That's why the jeep is still up there.

I don't want my tax dollars going to litigation when he rolls it and dies.  This is his bill to take care of, not mine.

So you think he owes you an answered phone call? Of which he has no idea what or who may be on the other line and open himself up to a bashing? I think you are giving yourself a little too much authority.....

Logic speaks again.
 :tup:

Weird.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

It may come across as authority? Which I know I have none. With that said his little three hour cruise which lead to him abandoning his vehicle in the eyes of the public puts all outdoor user groups into more locked gates to public land. Which maybe that was his motive? I don't know? The greenies out there will do cleaver things to sway stuff there direction? Not saying he is or not a greenie? But you never know?  The way it looks might have to have a round up of a lot of folks with hand tools and pack frames to get that rig out of the publics eyes?

Amen to that.  He screwed up and should have to pay.  I could easily see a guy like this suing if something went wrong on the extraction.

His choices got real narrow and taken out of his hands when he left the road, now he has to follow direction from those in control and pay the piper whatever the cost.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Its all good, everything can be linked to a much deeper meaning when given time to reflect. I just don't think I would answer the phone nor do "I" expect him too.  :)

Maybe the guy could borrow some Hookers or Bigger Diggers from someones sand sled  :chuckle:  Could probably find a logging operation with a skidder to rent too.  Rental plus fines would still probably be cheaper than a helo ride unless he could talk the Marines into using it as a training exercise.


Except ...  :chuckle: "he said hooker's"  :chuckle:
