The info on NO ATVS and NO HORSES is right on!
The ranch guys on Diamond A (the guys who are leasing the ranch from the Navajo Nation) are worried about disease transmission to ranch stock..This isn't a Navajo rule by the way....
Funny thing about the ATV rule, G&F won't enforce it, and each year when I'm up there I see the ranch folks on ATV's around the various camps. I do report other ATV usage to the ranch folks and G&F when and if I see them.
That's OK cause you got to remember this is checkerboarded lands and the Navajo Nation owns about 500,000 of the 750,000 acres of land there. It is their call, and we ought to respect it, no matter how bizarre we think it is.
Lots of areas are walk in only on the west side, and when you got a big bull down five miles from the truck in September, lots of luck packing it all out without a little spoilage! Still kinda warm up there in mid-September.
Anyway, a great place to hunt big bulls, especially in September.
Oh, best not "wander" onto the Hualapai res, if you do go through their fence--and its well marked, you're going to jail and from what I hear, the Peach Springs Correctional Facility is somewhat similar to the Fed's Guantanamo Bay facilities....
Good luck!
