Boondocking really exists?
I cant believe that there are places that you can pull off the road and just stay there. Not only for free but without fear of being arrested. That's just crazy talk to a guy from Mass. Technically...

Personally, I'd like to see control slowly transferred to the county sheriffs. Trail maintenance could be handled by county employees as well.
My reasoning relates to jurisdictional disputes that we have had, locally, between both USFS and BLM.
Several years ago Tombstone's aqueduct system was severely damaged by a fire in the Huachuca Mtns. The FS would not let them repair it. After a year or two battle, the FS relented and agreed that they could repair it, but could not use motorized vehicles or equipment. Eventually the citizens took it upon themselves and repaired it. If you can find photos, you will see that the citizens were armed. (Sound familiar?) Also, BLM will not allow sheriff deputies or Border Patrol to use vehicles to pursue suspects in certain areas.
Putting control back in local hands, that are answerable to the local voters, is more in line with the original design of this nation.
Speaking of Nevada, is a state that is almost 85% owned by the federal government truly a sovereign state?
