Re: [at-l] re: hunting
The most common public lands for hunting are national forest property.
Usually hunting season is pretty limited and during those times, being extra
careful and wearing bright blaze orange is a prudent precaution for anyone,
hunters and hikers alike.
Recognizing that boundaries are not always crystal clear, I have found
folks in Shenandoah National Park wearing blaze orange vests during hunting
season.
Hunting is a legitimate activity and hunters seem to be extremely careful
and very environment conscious. We all need to share our environment and be
good stewards.
