Share the backcountry

So far as I can see, backpackers and hikers want unlimited access to the whole valley for themselves, rather than share it

I moved into the valley in 1959, and have worked in the bush since that time.

I have been quadding for the past 10 years, and have always carried out what ever I have brought in.

So far as I can see, the backpackers and hikers want unlimited access to the whole valley for themselves, rather than share it among all user groups.

Please do not judge everyone by the actions of a few.
