Here's another question.......

how many of you when random camping buy a firewood permit? how many of you realize that you actually DO require one?

Firewood Permit Requirements in Alberta - Firewood Guide

Agriculture and Forestry - Tree Cutting - Tree Cutting Permits

I was sure a permit is only required for harvesting live trees, not for the kind of dead fall and such we cut while camping.

I did some checking. A permit is not required just to cut firewood for random camping...
Ghost Region:

If you are random camping in the Forest Reserve, you do not require a firewood permit to cut firewood. If you are planning to take the firewood home then a permit is required.

Woodlands Region:

If you are random camping in the Forest Reserve, you do not require a firewood permit to cut firewood. If you are planning to take the firewood home then a permit is required.

That might be a thought for some of the higher traffic spots, but it does kinda defeat "randomness." True, a lot of people like to keep returning to the same spots, but I kinda like to just head out and look for a place to setup. Sometimes I don't even know which direction I'm heading until I hit the highway since I usually just follow the nice weather.

In the west country, All summer long any area that is big enough to get a vehicle and a pup tent in is occupied. Whether or not they are just camping quading or fishing it could be regulated.
All

you don't need a firewood permit for cutting down dead standing or wind blown trees for a campfire. For firewood for your house yes you do and it's 5 bucks plus g.s.t.

write a letter stating your position, send it to her, you're local MLA and to Premiere Rachel Notley

I've made up my "nice if you could consider the OHV folk that live in that area and the rest of us folks here in Alberta and a-far that have enjoyed the area for more than 44 years sight seeing from our units."

Many out fitters, trappers, and cattle grazing folks all so use these units day in and out too do their thing, I do hope you reconsider the GOA plan of allowing OHV and Snowmobiling in the Castle Area Shannon Phillips as its a experience too have here in Alberta as the tourism industries and small towns, cities and hamlets all benefit our Province as a whole.

PS: Kind and thoughtful letter with much more added "before and after."

My Pops helped me as he knows this BS. Ha.

A awesome area of large land mass for all too share.


Loosing this area allows the GOA too take away more.


Stats of reality, and the numbers are of OHV use.

Theres alot of Eastern Slopes at stake.






OHV use in Alberta is in the $2 "BILLIONS brothers and sisters.

 

[Lem Lamb]

The plan from the GOA


At the time when SSRB plan was being made.


And what happened as they left us out and closed the door in our face.


This is what should of happened as they were obligated to have consultation "fair" too all Albertans,,, of course with out the 200.000 recreation folks of OHV and Snowmobilers.


The on line survey is tricky, question 4 is a doozer. "Click Neither only."

Question 7 is our ticket. Referring to question 7, then stat in box,,,, "I believe OHV use should be allowed in the Castle Mountain Area.
