    Fines for season passes

    in Dumont Regulations, Safety & BLM

    Beautiful thing about case law, don't have to wait. They were very clear on the plain language of the law. No amenities at Dumont to charge for. I'm not talking special rec fee. But yes, I agree with you on the plan. I just like to stir this issue now and then, especially when a very liberal court gets it right.

    Damb, not so hard...

    Fines for season passes

    I have always been vocal about my disagreement with having to pay fees to use land that I already pay taxes on to use. The difference is instead of bitching about it online in a harsh manner, I let my elected officials get an earful and attempt to be respectful in my viewpoints. You will find most agree with you on the merits. I think you cross a line on the LEO’s. I happen to know a few of them, both San Berdo Sheriff and BLM Rangers and can tell you that they have a job to do that isn’t easy. Consider the dunes grow to the size of a small city and a handful of cops who work in excess of 12 hour shifts are needed to handle domestic cases, thefts, DRUNKS, and accidents. If you get stopped by one of them, perhaps you should consider what drew their attention to you in the first place and be compliant. Respect in your interaction with them will go a long way between a warning and a citation. I love how many guys I have seen get fired up about being questioned on an issue holding a beer in their hands with empties sitting on the seats. I have a picture of a guy shooting comp hill with a beer in his hand. Of the three times a cop came into my camp in all the years I have been going to Dumont, first time was legit (we had fireworks, gave us a warning), second, he had a question and we helped him, and the third, they were invited for photos. Not buying a pass is your call. You make the risk assessment on your choices. Don’t b*tch if you get caught, it IS your fault.
