I have picked up a lot of trash this past year... just last weekend while hangin cameras I picked up a bunch of cans and then 1 last stop at a campsite that has access to a hill I have wanted to hike around there was soooo much trash. I was embarrassed to be associated with someone like that. trash everywhere in the fire pit all around the camp. toilet paper all over as if the woman in the group couldn't walk a little farther. I picked up the camp minus the toilet paper but was pretty disgusted! This was in 23...... last year I met this guy from work for the early archery deer and quickly learned he was a road hunter and a litter bug! he got in my truck after relieving himself and proceeded to throw all of the trash (wrappers and such, some of wich I picked up from a couple glassin spots) from my floorboard out of the vehicle! I said "what the heck are you doing!!!?" " pick that stuff up!!! I can't remember what he replied back but I was pretty angry.... the next morning I hopped in my truck to go glass and he got mad and left because I didn't wake him up! I always thought hunters and outdoorsman/women were stewards of the land........ apparently not! James

we have had similar situation, but it was more like dove season on a mule deer hunt! sometimes ( a lot of times actually ) people don't respect your space. we set up on a ridge for my wifes first muley hunt an hour early. as we sat there in the light of a full moon the vehicle lights of several vehicles started coming. they parked near where we parked and posted up on the ridge by the road. I spotted a buck coming through the saddle and called my wife over from the other side of the ridge and before we could set up I see this guy start sneaking down the ridge. I look across the steep canyon and see several hunters lined up along the ridge like dove season! This guy shoots the buck and we are super bummed! Sucks and of coarse our situation was a bit different. I hate to say it but it is public land hunting.... I guess some peoples parents didn't teach ethics. I would hate to think they would do that but then again I wouldn't think another hunter would steal anothers trail camera either! James
