There is one thing I am greatly upset with. I hunt area 341 more 

 than any other area, the logging done in this area is the most 

 damaging act I have seen in 13 years of hunting. I can see 

 clear-cutting in some wilderness, but when somthing like this is 

 done, someone screwed-up. They cut whole valleys and hillsides 

 completly bare of trees. I watched 11 head of elk walk 30 feet 

 in front of me through timber 7 years ago on the head of Beef 

 straight creek in area 341. Now there is ' nt a tree standing on 

 the same hill. 



The hunting there has went down hill very badly in the last 5 

 years the area will never be the same. Actions like this should 

 be carefully thought through before contracts are signed. 



Domestic Cattle should not be allowed on CMR and BLM land to 

 compete with the wildlife. 



8/e I would be willing to pay more for a license (conservation 

 tag) If the proceeds were to go for winter habitat. 



1) You need to spend more funds on purchasing winter range and 

 cut other programs & expenditures . 



2) If a ranch does not allow access to hunters during the 

 regular season - the cow elk damage hunts should not be permitted 

 on those ranches. 



Yes, the cattle seem to be taking over the elk's habitat. 



I like the idea of license money going toward habitat. As a 

 college student, $20 for an archery stamp is hard to come up with 

 and yet the reasoning behind #8d. makes sense. I feel that the 

 weather was a contributing factor to my lack of success at 

 archery hunting this last season. Also there just were not the 

 elk in my area this year as compared to the previous two years . 



I find to many domestic livestock usining Gov. land the year 

 around. There are Laws against this but not enforced. I fought 

 in Korea for these Laws but still they are not enforced. I feel 

 the Gov. is slacking to please a few for my tax dollars. 



Please keep the livestock out of the forrest. you are over 

 grazing the grass 1 This effects my hunting areal The only free 

 hunting that can be found! Our forrest lands. 



I would like to see some Land bought over in the east for Elk 



habitat. 



the herds could be increased in the Breaks area's if there wasn't 



so much concern for cattle on public land, sportsmen are the ones 



paying the F.W.P. bill and salaries. 



While I enjoy many forms of hunting. The best part of any hunt 

 is just being out in the wilderness.
