Just think how many of these young guys will be leaving the state after
2-4 years of college if they aren't able to access land for hunting. If they have to pay for the best access then they might as well move to Minneapolis, make more money and come back to ND a couple of weekends a year. Great economic impact...or maybe not. Let's see, live in ND make $50,000 per year, purchase a house and car, pay about $1500.00 in state taxes as well as local property taxes and sales tax...or move to MN make 10 -20% more for the same job, pay no taxes to the state, and visit ND and pay an outfitter $500.00 for access. It wouldn't take me long to figure it out if access continues to decline at the rate it has been the last couple of years what I would do.
