I also had mentioned that there are a lot less people using the forestry during hunting season then users using the forestry during camping season. Sorry that's how it is. Our next stop was to the provincial building in pincher creek and was told a totally different story about the closures. Everything from chain lakes to Watertown including the porkies.
unbelievable. lets not inconvenience certain users till after the long weekend when we know their usage drops way off. and the balls the CO's showed using the language they did. yes the general public(less the ATV's) does anyone know who we put the pressure on to have this lifted as soon as it is safe to do so? if they have their way they will keep it closed till the end of general season.
