Petition to restrict Maclean to daytime use only on May Long
One thing that might work to encourage "occasional" campers and users of the area and I think it's been done before is to ride around and take pictures of people's campsites with a vehicle license plate in the picture. If we get 20 or 30 RMDRA people combing the most commonly used remote camping areas it would'nt take that long. I honestly don't think it would provide any real legal recourse if they left a mess, but it would give people like us an opportunity to chat with these individuals and give them a little education about land use and the repercussions of misuse. I think if this was done diplomatically it might have the most positive effect. Any thoughts?

I recently watched Fubar again with a few buds. These are mostly the kinds of people you will be dealing with out there on those days. They won't know what education, diplomacy, and responsibility are! Let alone risking your life chatting with some of those goons. They'll likely percieve you as a threat and then the temper's will rise.
Not everyone falls into the Fubar category I'm sure, however it is in my humble opinion that around 90% of them do. I and you (ktmpilot) both know - we did it too at those ages!!
