Just saw this on snow Tracks today . I'm all for hunting , but our riding season is short enough as it is . So does this mean for example if there is a Foot of snow on Dec 10 . We can't ride , bars , lodges , gas stations , etc all suffer more economic loss .. Vila already has pretty much made it so ATV's will never be allowed there and now they are working against our trail access on sleds also .. What's everyone's view on this .. ( & I have a place in Vila county and myself none to happy with this and many of the board & dnr decisions the last several years up there .. Below is what I pasted from the trail report ..
"Due to the multiple Deer Hunts trails in Vilas County will open December 17 snow permitting. Yep I know it’s late. This is due to the many deer hunts popping up & some having concerns about safety. With the in mind…Tonight there is a Public Hearing at 6pm at the Northland Pines High School Auditorium held by the DNR. Time for you to speak up about all the hunts in December."
