BLM Ranger!

They suck!!! F'ing parking meter collectors! $15 to sit at three dunes yesterday. For what? Douchebags

to pay to clean up the trash you'l surely leave behind............douche bag! cant pay don't play

if it were for trash service then I would be willing to pay them. Otherwise I also think it is a bunch of shit. freedom is a relative term these days. Nickle and dime you to death.

I got to say I do not agree with the extra fee either. I just bought another year BLM pass for $100 (used to be 50). I wouldn't blame the ranger for doing his job but I am sure AZ taxes more then cover this area along with a multitude of other areas. Launch fee at a state site should suffice.

maybe boat a lil more and find a free beach.They do exist.

Personally i like to boat find a beach to kick for a little then boat some more vs sit all day in a channel or a pay beach

Agree but with small kids they like to play and swim rather then boat around so just depends on your situation. With no kids, I don't even put anything on the beach. Might stop for a bit or float somewhere but boat up and down the lake all day. With the kids, I need a base camp set up.

Finally, a reasonable response. I use my own trash bags and not there facilities either. I don't camp there or put up tents. I'm a local who stays at a beach for a few hours then leave. Still BS if you ask me!!!

you are so right! the states, regardless of what they now tell you, have parks included in their budgets. from that TAX money they are supposed to maintain parks and facilities. they are such poor business people that the tax money is spent thru the general budget and not allocated to the parks.

THINK ABOUT IT; how much money can they collect in one day on the water? little more than beer money. what do they do with that money?

you're being duped! you already paid for it in TAXES.

by the way, what has happened to the fund thats supposed to return your gas TAX money, (you know highway tax money for boats obviously not used on the highways) to lake improvements, that amount should cover a lot of maintenance.

Let me get this right. $200 for a launch pass and $100 for the BLM pass and that's good for the whole year right? I have both and they have more than paid for themselves twice over and the season isn't even half over. Pay the money and stop crying whining little bitches!!!
