Title: Disabled Hunter & ATV
Post by: dawei on September 23, 2010, 11:06:11 AM: Can I use my ATV in GMU520 Winston? I certainly will not be tearing through the timber. I will only use it on existing logging roads. Any assistance offered will be greatly appreciated.

My first year up there I had my quad. Seen gamewardens, sheriffs, and port blakely workers while hunting and they never said anything to me. But I'm sure that might be just 1 of the reasons why Winston Creek is closed and walk in only this year.
