In Reply to: Another.... what would you do? Stuck Trespassers posted by Billy NY on August 07, 2015 at 17:09:59:

I have a lot of those incidents, not so much with someone stuck, but trespassers. I live in a secluded area along a creek that was previously a popular party spot for the youth, and a perfect road through for road hunters. About 15 years ago I decided to build on the place after it being basically just used for cattle grazing, and quickly found out that I was going to have to reclaim my own property from the kids and road hunters. The first few years were the worst, and I have been called every name in the book, had fences cut, logs drug across my driveway - you name it, I have had it with the exception of them trying to burn me out, and I am confident they would have tried if they could have seen the house and buildings or tell if I was home. I found out the best policy is a zero tolerance policy -- no one enters. Now it is fairly peaceful and between the ones that were tearing things up, etc finally growing out of it, and word getting around that I will confront those entering. In the past year of two I have had a couple, one couple driving their pickup onto the gravel bar (drinking of course), and when approached he immediately took the offense, and both told me they could go anywhere along the creek they pleased (the female could tell you where to go without taking the Marlboro out of her mouth :-)). The other crew was a family in a 4 door UTV (nice one). They were stuck in the creek. They were not too pleased with me when I told them of their dilemma that I was not going to allow them to enter with another vehicle to retrieve, and I planned on retrieving and they could have law enforcement see me about getting it back. The were able to get it out via a winch, but I doubt they will be back, as they know I am serious and they indeed received a visit from Dept of Conservation who was planning on informing them of the merits of not entering private property or driving a vehicle within the stream bed (fines for both I am told). If I would have continued to tolerate them, or allowed a few, I am fairly certain I would still be putting up with the ones that feel they have the "right" to enter the stream via private property, and hunt from the roadway. It is touchy at times when you approach someone who is drinking and may indeed be carrying a weapon, but I never carry myself as I know there have been a few times when I would have shot out a few tires, or possibly worse. Best to not put myself into that temptation.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
