RE: SHAWNEE NATIONAL FOREST
When i hunted in the Shawnee a couple years back there was a guy that showed up in the campground with a ATV in his pickup. The ranger told him he would ticket him if the wheels of the ATV touched the ground. He said keep it in the back of your pickup truck.....or else.
We used a deer cart to toss stands on and get back in. There are some areas that NOTHING with wheels is allowed into though so do your research. Also get GOOD maps. The Shawnee is not one large piece of land. Its many many pieces, mixed with private land and some not marked very well. With good maps look for pieces that are hard to get too, or overlooked. We found a piece that had difficult access, and had a great time there..........
