I am a novice in hunting and issues such as these... but I think easy access would disadvantage another group - hunters with the desire and capability to hike in 30km to hunt remote wilderness.
My feeling is that a good system is one that preserves a wide range of opportunity for many cross sections of hunters and public land users in general. I love driving around on an ATV hunting, but also enjoy backpack hunting. I am looking forward to learning to sheep hunt and as a long-distance kinda guy I would like some areas preserved for this, even though my first sheep hunt next fall will be in the 6km hike in range.
I also think that it needs to be looked at in terms of what increased hunting pressure will mean to all the areas that could be quickly accessed through the parks and what that impact would be on opportunity in all these areas in the long run.
