Word came down the USFS has shut down all operations
You tell me. Thousands of miles of roads and they intend to try and stop it all?
EBT cards should stop working any day now. /s
They are going to spend more keeping things closed than it cost to keep them open.
Smoket if you gotet!
Yes, I saw what my fat fingers did, thnaks.
Government shut down means closure for U.S. Forest Service trails, day use areas

This is going to stop cartels from growing in our national forests, right?
OH YES...HERE WE GO!!! No hunting no logging no effn nuthin.
I will be talking to Dr Benishek I suppose sometime and HE IS REALLY PISSED according to his staff. He backs Cruz to the max on this bastard care law.
Just in time for first rifle season Elk in Colorado. If they try to close access to hunters on Forest Service roads it could get ugly in the west. I know a mny hunters and not one has an Obama bumper sticker. I imagine the state biologists will warn of huge winter starvation of Elk and mule deer if the herds are not thinned out by hunters. But if the Won thinks he can close the oceans, he might just try to close the forests. There is a big difference though, hunters carry guns not fishing rods.
Just in time for peak fire season here in CA.
Congress has not provided appropriations for fiscal year 2014. Pursuant to applicable legal requirements in the Antideficiency Act and Attorney General opinions addressing agency operations in the absence of appropriations, the Forest Service is unable to administer federally-owned recreation facilities. Consequently these facilities will be shut down and posted accordingly with signs provided, with gates locked where they exist, restrooms locked, and water systems shut down. Visitors in occupied sites would be given 48 hours to vacate, with the area shut down as the last visitor leaves, not to exceed 48 hours.
They dont give a rats ass. You and I are the ones paying for this.
The USFS used to be self funding until Ol Herbert Walker allowed the eco freaks to get into the agency fully. Before then, only the parks division used to be effected unless the districts funded it out of their own pockets.
OH NO!
The forests are doomed!
In fact they are already gone, just like the oceans!
They always start some sort of fire around here as well those controlled burns!
Great!
Hehehehe!
chop down all the wood to build barrycades
this could be a shovel-ready job!
No, I work for the local property owners’ association that runs the parks on our area of the lake. It is all privately funded with owners’ dues.
Are they making all the Mtn. Lions, Bear, Mule Deer and Elk vacate the Property too? /s
