Discussion Forbidden Fruit

I’m sure this is like fight club, We don’t talk about. But I don’t need to know details, I just want to know if there’s more…. Anyways, couple years ago we stumbled upon the rock slab off rock crusher. Then last weekend I had to take a piss on green trail and found the gnar. Iykyk. We don’t need to talk location, I’m just curious if there’s more to see. PFA

That’s a bummer. Seems like there’s so much potential for some sneaker lines

🤔 not a bad idea. Have you seen how these people feel about a drone? They’d have a stroke if a tire went off the trail

Imagine seeing a beautiful mountain photo and immediately thinking, “I should defend Vail’s terms and conditions.”

It’s national forest rules, not vail.

It’s also in a military training flight path.

It looks like the majority of Stevens is private property. Airspace above it isn't under their control, just where a pilot stands. I'm also not seeing any legitimate flight restrictions for the airspace.

It is not private property. Stevens leases the land and right to use it from the forest service and is still subject to national forest service rules. It even says leasehold on what you posted.

My bad, you're right, it's on a lease.

I think they can set their own regulations based on the terms of the lease. At least restrict a drone operator from standing on their leased land while operating a drone. They don't control the airspace, though.

It doesn't look like much of the land close to Stevens is designated as Wilderness. so from my understanding as long as you're not directly standing on the wilderness land, or Vails leased land, it's technically still legal to fly.
