From what little I know about it, building structures isn't allowed in National Wilderness areas. Does anyone know for sure?
I don't want to build a cabin, but I did find one under construction whilst scouting an area for potential bear hunting opportunities. My concern here is not the structure itself, but the feelings that may be built along with it as to some sort of perceived property and hunting rights on the part of the builder.
Namely that they may feel they own the cabin (built with trees from th area) and the land on which is sits. And potentially become territorial if I were to encounter them.
The most obvious course of action is to just stay clear, and not hunt there. But it looks like a prime area thick with various berries, a year round water source, and plenty of cover, limited human travel, and lots of wildlife. So I want to hunt it.
What would you do?
