Default Onus on Accessing GRL

So how would this follow under onus... ive contacted the GRL and seems like ive been playing cat and mouse and getting the run around before the dry spell we had... he said he got cattle there or its to dry or its full... conditions say foot access only if cattle present.... do i just access... i have all emails i sent from day one and left my cell contact info... im just hunting...& not damaging nothing and im not taking garbage in. Just me and my rifle.. should i have phone on video mode if met with the GRL on the land.

AlbertaWild - sorry man, might want to take a few extra minutes to stitch those sentences together. I'd love to help but I've got no idea what you're asking.

Follow the conditions and you should be good to go. He could still deny you access due to it being "full" but 85% of the time he's probably full of **** on that account.

Special areas 3&4 are still under fire bans. Lease access can be denied when fire bans are in effect.

It would be helpful to know where you intend to hunt.

Show some respect. If the lease owner told you no then you are trespassing. They can rightfully deny you access if cattle are in the fields.

And in my opinion respect is lost by those lease holders that screw around with ethical hunters and deny access.

So should it be considered trespassing if the lease holder still has livestock on the lease after the grazing season. That's becoming a fairly common exscuse of leaseholders is that they still have one or two cows out they are having trouble catching. These guys have too remember that they do not own the land just the right too graze it. Some seem too forgetfull when it comes allowing others access.

Reapect... is not giving a hunter the run around or trying to find a excuss to keep them off... then the hunter getting the point across to the GRL holder & the govt should allow some point of acces to GRL that has to go over private land to access.. another run around.

"some"..is the key word there...and there could be other minister approved restrictions in place other than cattle at large as well

Yes you are correct....
There are rules and requirements too be followed on both sides of the fence. Not all lease holders are difficult but not all outdoorsmen are either.

Call the local settlement officer. He / she will sort it out....if you are hell bent on hunting that land.... there may be some bad blood after the settlement officer gets involved.

if the conditions on the GRL you view specify a number for hunters (i.e. only 4 per day) they have the right to say full if have that many. If no limit stated they cannot say full because they don't have a minister approved condition specifying the max number.

If a fire ban in effect they can legally deny access same if any livestock on land.

The loop hole that annoys me is they can hunt if livestock/fireban themselves and can allow (but are not legally required to) hunters on land. So if there is a cow on the land they can restrict access to themselves and/or their friends...
