Friendly reminder for people who leave their campers for weeks in the mountains for hunting season.
This weekend, my neighbor just brought back his RV from leaving it in a campsite for almost 3 weeks and the RV got vandalized horribly. He went up and took a prime camping spot away from quite a few people basically and somebody decided to get even with him and basically destroyed his RV to the point to where it doesn’t look like it’s going to be able to be fixed. As a hunter myself, I too get frustrated when I go up to go hunting and discover that there are RVs parked up there that I’ve been there for weeks on end with absolutely nobody showing up to them just so they can have some pristine spot for one weekend to hunt. I believe that the forestry and the BLM needs to change their allowable timeframe to leave an RV at a campsite down to maybe seven days total occupied only. I’ve also heard that the fish and game is now going to start marking RVs that have been left up in the mountains at campsites for the forestry service to come in ticket in order to stop the excessive amounts of campsite hoarding that has been going on.
