Lefthand Cleanup 12-30-06

[newracer]

The 4x4 crowd is organizing a cleanup. Most think the gun crowd are irresponsible. Maybe we can show them otherwise.

Not to piss on Your charcol but, the last time this happened, Only two of us "shooters" showed up. and the "4 Wheelies" didn't even come down to clean up the "Shooting area" We did get one guy that came up to shoot stay and help, but 15 others just drove away. Pardon My lack of enthusiasm, But, I'll just stick to cleaning up the areas that I use. :roll:

If You can garentee 20 others to show up, I might consider it, if not, let the 4 wheeler's think what they want. They're going to anyway. it's mainly stupid college kids that trash it anyways. :evil:

I totally understand and agree with your feelings towards it. They have posted that they are going to concentrate on the shooting area but we will see what happens. Hell they can't even get people to clean up the areas they use and stay on the designated trail. I still have not been there but the pictures I have seen are horrible (of the trail destruction). That area is going to be closed soon to 4x4 (not sure about shooting) due to massive destruction.

I just wanted to post it in case anybody was interested.

It needs it I would have to agree most that use Left Hand are irresponsible. look at this crap. (took picture this weekend)

Oh and do not tell me my Jeep looks like crap I dont want people shooting at it.

Never been there, but those pictures tell a story.
Not a good story either.

That's clean compared to when Brandon and I went up there. [abused]





Still sad though. [diss]


Newracer, I can take heart that the Ranger that I talked too, was More impressed with our efforts than He was with the 4 wheelies. And there was only three of us. :mrgreen:

Nice job making all of us look like irresponsible hillbillies. Clean up your frickin range before "the man" does and tells you that you can't shoot there any more. By the looks of things, it won't be long...

Dose the park ranger have a dump site we can take all the crap? The sofa's would be a truck load right there. Probably another 10 loads at least after that. I've never been there but, If you can get others to commit give me a map and I'll bring my truck. :evil:

ok guys I am a newbie here but understand I have been wheeling as long as I have been shooting(20+years). I think that the more hands the better. Makes the job a whole lot easier plus you get to meet new people that may have similar interests Jeeping and shooting for me are like peanut butter and jelly but like any hobby there are idiots that make us all look bad ironically wheelers have the exact same consequence as shooters do for the damage these idiots do, another place where you can't shoot or wheel. maybe its time to at least help each other out and maybe become aligned to fight the government in closing more areas where both hobby's can be enjoyed, strength in numbers you know? 4 Wheelers have become very good at dealing with the feds on land issues and come to think of it I can't think of any other hobby the feds consider to be on the wrong side that has had more success then the off road crowd in fighting uncle sam, the greenies or who ever.
