Bear Hunting in Georgia/North Carolina OCT 24 2019

[Tipi Walter]

Why should hikers dictate how hunters act? Keep guns in their trucks? One can't hunt without a gun. How about hunters tell hikers what to do. Multi-purpose areas are just that. HYOH and Hunt Your Own Hunt.

You must've missed my earlier complaint about unsupervised hunting dogs stealing my food and clawing up my tent and urinating on my pack etc. Multi-purpose areas are all well and good---until their activities (their dogs) interfere with my use of the woods. Hunt Your Own Hunt is great---just keep tabs on your dogs and stick with them---otherwise they glom onto hikers and backpackers for days (and nights)---as if abandoned.

I've seen dozens of these dogs over the years---maybe a hundred---and this little motard just peed on my pack---on a trip back in 2015.
