Stakk, ya'll keep up the good work!
 As you know there are some out there who seem to have nothing better to do than stir up $#it.
Ignore the ignorant   We know what the truth is.

[country girl]

  so there are Bears in the Park?? Did you actually see them, yourself??
Not quite keen on the whole " wild " anaimal thing, especially while your out riding.

We seen a ton of Deer saturday. Brimstone is Great! Keep up the GREAT work. There are always going to be people who like to complain no matter what you do. I just try to look over people like that. THere not worth the agravation.   Brimstone is the prettiest place i have ever ridden....and i have rode alot of places.

I understand about the disclaimer and the right to delete certain information.

 I don't think it's right to delete replies to a question asked by a member of the forum.  It may appear that the replies are negative but actually they are simply stating FACTS.

Such as facts about the property, the lack of abundant wildlife, and the lack of pristine streams that the article in the paper leads you to believe.  I just don't think its right to mislead someone just to get them to buy a permit and then they are dissapointed because of high hopes initiated from what someone wrote in a newspaper article.

Well, I 'm not sure where some of you people have been riding on the Brimstone property...but it surely isn't the same places that I rode.
My wife and I came to Brimstone in the spring of last year for the first time. We didn't have a guide, just a map and 2 quads. We started our ride on the "Blue Trails" not knowing what to expect ....and soon started taking the "Red Trails" . These trails were well marked, and the maps,( if you can read a map) were to the T. On these trails we saw deer, grouse,cyotoe,turkey and numerous species of small game. Some of the trails had " prestine scenery and landscape" but not all....as you could imagine from a place that had been logged. We stopped our quads back on trail 49 and just set , talked annd took in the beauty of nature at it's best. We were VERY impressed with what Brimstone had to offer....and the people that run the place are top notch as well....You'd be hard pressed to find better people than Mark, Erica, Shawn,Dudley and Stakk. These people didn't know us from Adam but they went out of their way to help us....AND THEY DID IT FOR FREE.....
NOw we live 160 miles away but we bought season passes and made the trip 5 times last year...and we bought passes for this year and already used them once. WE ride all over the country from Utah , Colorado, West Virginia, Virginia, Ohio, Indiana,Kentucky etc....so I think we know a good place when we find it...And Brimstone is one of the Best.
Keep up the good work Brimstone crew!

Last time I rode Brimstone I saw 6 deer during the days ride. I have found that they are just like every deer I have ever ran up on at Windrock and Tellico. Yes, the 4 wheeler will spook them, but no more than if you were to walk up on them. They usually run off about 50-75 yards and stop. I have seen them even stand there at that distance for quite some time and just look back. I will never understand why hunters raise so much **** about motorized vehicles running during hunting season. In my opinion, vehicles do not disturb animals enough to make any difference to amount to.

I too have ridden in several states and many locations in each state and I am here to tell you that we spent 5 days there last year and we saw plenty of wild life. Deer were all over the place as well as turkey and others. We had a blast and we are heading back up.......800 miles one way...... for another 4 days this year.

No matter what you do, there will always be someone who is going to bitch.  We had a guy on the Southern SxS Riders the other day do everything except threaten to kill us.  I finally locked the thread, but did not delete the posts.  My opinion is to leave them there for everyone to read. If they are completely dead wrong, in the end they end up looking like a horse's rear end.  Myself, I think Brimstone looks as close to heaven as it gets...(besides WV, because it is HEAVEN)!  Keep up the good work down there crew!

[Bald Eagle]

You see more wildlife when you don't ride like wildfire. I also prefer stock (or quieter) exhaust to keep the noise down so I can see even more without spooking them further.
Brimstone has Windrock beat, hands down, even with less acreage.

I agree.

[postaldave]

true that! anyone bitching about lack of wildlife is not riding fast enough. i find the large amount of wildlife a danger. never seen so many dear in my life.

I have had deer run right out in front of me before and have had them at camp at night blowing at us.
Also am I the only one that has seen wild hogs there? Hav'nt seen a post from anyone stating that but have seen were they wallow and root in "certain places" and have actually seen them a couple of times in the mornings.

[boog]

yes i have seen the piggies get a ride off the mountain on the back of a atv just last year.

And Lt. that guy did threaten you and the others with his talk of the mountain taking care of you. Personally i think he had been eating the wrong mushrooms or probably what they were growing in out in the pasture

The Brimstone corp has done a great job with their task and have succeeded in keeping a mountain wilderness open for all outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy. I just with they could test the exhaust decibels of motorcycles and quads before issuing permits. Nothing worst to ruin a pleasant outing than a loud offroader.

I have had one run between me and the quad in front of me  but i thought i was the only one that had seen one. Now they have to believe me

I feel sorry for the people complaining about Brimstone, you are only doing yourself a disservice. The place and the people there are Top Notch. I live 4 hours away and I choose to ride Brimstone many times during the year. It is in my top 3 places to ride. The place is well taken care of, the people that run it will bend over backwards to help you if you need anything and it is some of the most beautiful country will you see. I have seen grouse, turkey and deer many times while riding the property.

Guys we do appreciate the positive comments, I'm not sure why i didn't archive this one a while back since it was started in early '06 and for that matter JM is no longer a forum member
