oak creek

I saw 2 game wardens up on charmack canyon sat.   Lots of quads up there also. somebody probably got cited for something.  Turkey hunters said nice weather but no birds!!!

I've had roosted birds gooble to my bugling in the fall up around Carroll Flat...(around 1990).  I grew up hunting over there and never saw or heard a turkey until that evening.

I was really tempted to pull in and see who the corporate driving the black dodge was, but I decided to leave it alone. I do know of two other guys that sneak in there every year and find tons of sheds but there time will come and they will get caught.

6am start for the easter egg hunt is confirmed

[Scottystyle]

quads have no buisness up in the woods. they are lazy people that are greedy and dont really care about anything else execpt how many antlers they find. they cheat they still and they cause un nessasary stress on the animals. i think this a big proplem, just like poaching!

Don't the guys on horse back do the same thing?
 

To what i have heard, the guys on horse's go in weeks before the gates are open.
Is that fair?

[jackelope]

if they are, they are breaking the law. it's not fair or unfair. they are trespassing whether they are on horses, quads, or on foot. its illegal. there are so many other places to look for sheds, i can't understand the appeal of this zoo.

Yakima Herald states 6 for walk in, 8 for motorized.   (I assume horse is 6)

Also a nice article about the cameras they put in there to nab thieves.  Coupel nice quad shots. LOL and two locals walking by the game cams.

by the time the honest guys get in their at least half the horns are gone-it sucks.....

Just curious if the west side of Hoover canyon in Oak creek is open to the public or is it also part of the wintering area?

[Scottystyle]

  STAMPEDE !!!!!    Its getting close to that time again

No its more like 70-80 percent of the sheds are already picked up by the time the honest guys get in there. I know of two different guys that sneak in there every year and find 20-30 sheds each year in there. (some day they will get caught, and I'm gonna celebrate when they do).

Why dont you help make it happen?

Rat them out and do everyone a favor.

[boneaddict]

I don't even bother, and look how close I live.

I dont have much intrests in messing around up there but where is the boundary? CAn you get a map of bondary? Is it the fence or is it up further to the forest service? Just curious.
