 Appalachian Trail ConfusionGrowing up in Bland County we used the Appalachian Trial for a way to get into and out of hunting spots. When I moved to Roanoke County over seven years ago, I started to hear how that was illegal. Never did bother to look it up until tonight.
For anyone that has wondered.... Quote: Hunting is allowed on more than half of the Appalachian Trail. This comes as a shock to many hikers, but hunting has been a traditional outdoor-recreation use of the land along many sections of the Trail, both on public and private lands, and fishing and hunting groups are among the biggest supporters of protection of public lands. http://www.appalachiantrail.org/hike/hi ... nting.html Also, more information can be found here.... http://www.appalachiantrail.org/protect ... nting.html Of course if you do use this as a way to get into a hunting spot, be sure to remember safety. _________________ "What gets us jangly is the suddenness of everything. We hunt turkeys because we want to hear them gobble, watch them strut and all that, and we hunt them with shotguns because we want to be close to them when those things occur." - Jim Spencer |
