Naked Man, The last sentence in your post above is completely ignorant. If you are speaking of being confronted by Mike Castro on the Moss Mill road, it was signed by the BLM as an open route. His fight at that time was with the BLM and not me. I have stated here on this forum a handful of times that the JF3 trail was not built by me, is that definite enough for you. Since you were too lazy to reby Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Yes AZ, lets here directly from Mike Castro, and not his little helpers. Why has he never posted here about his side. Also AZ I'm still wondering about that trail of yours that you worked on just east of the Bowen Ranch trail. I asked you about it in my " Shot in the Hills post ". You did not respond, why, because if you denied it you would have to lie, and that would make me laugh my pby Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Please have mercy Rick, your suggestion could mean real trouble for a gramatically challenged person like myself :-)by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Naked Man, to clarify, the post in which I first answered the question you asked above is in april in the older topics, " around " my post titled Road Trip. Seek and you shall find.by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
It is time for justice! Something missing for far too long regarding incidents around the Bowen Ranch.by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
AZ, what about the trail you worked on, your special trail. Have you no comments to make about it ?by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
DCR, you have made excellent points. Naked Man, you and AZ are hopelessly mirred in misguided thinking. You both are on a merry go round that never ends in the Bowen Ranch Bermuda triangle. You ask if I built the JF3 trail. I have specifically answered that question a number of times here on the forum, beginning the first time when I did my post titled " Road Trip " back around april. Iby Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Here's another things to consider folks. In my last conversation with Mike Castro he stated to me, " If you tell a lie long enough, it will become truth ". He was refering this statement to the things Katrina and her supporters where doing. However, I feel that Mike Castro is actually the one who is all too familiar with this method of dissinformation. This tactic is clearly being usedby Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Rick, your too much :-)by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
DCR, Actually the law concerning travel in forestry lands does not require you to walk on trails, you can walk anywhere you wish unless the area is closed for some specific reason, like the situation after the Willow Fire.by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
AZ, you expose yourself for what you are in putting my name on the forum, a careless fool, but I have, in the years of knowing you, come to expect this kind of behaviour from you. My brother has a character of spirit that is beyond anything your small mind will ever understand. Beleive me, there is no crying about you between us, just disappointment that we trusted a person as yourself enough toby Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Eastbay, could you contact me at hotspringswizard@hotmail.com , thanks. Glad to hear about your recovered keys :-)by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
AZ, you ever heard that one about not beating a dead horse. You really need to move on and leave this " shill thing " behind :-)by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I can when I really want too, sticks and stones and all that stuff :-) Besides mispeling things is much more fun :-)by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
AZ, Shill is " way " to big a word for you to be using " all " by yourself! Fess up, who's helping you :-) By the way, who is Mary ?by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
AZ, HMMMMMMMMMMMM, I did play Baseball, is that what your refering to :-)by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
AZ, Third negative post in a row, one more and you'll have a grand slam :-) Man, your trip up north must have gone really sour :-(by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Whats the matter AZ, arn't things going well for you in life, here in So Cal or even in Redding :-) Am I " required " to soak at DCHS in order to be a worthy person in your eyes :-) Am I " required " to carry out other peoples trash :-) Like I said before, it really doesn't matter what you beleive, I'll just wait a couple of days and you'll change your mind, again :-)by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Sycamore, looking forward to meeting you, again :-)by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
AZ, First question, beleive me or Mike, does it really matter what you beleive since you flip flop your opinion so much :-) Your second point Hmmmm, so when I mention how folks can access legally around the ranch, thats advertisment, but when it is mentioned on basically all the sites how to access through the Bowen Ranch, thas something else? The JF3 trail is hazardous, now I now your smokin somby Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Sycamore Laughing, Since the 4th is on Thursday, which three days are you referring to, 5,6,7 ? Since you know me it sounds like we have probably had conversation before. I remember faces well, names not so well :-) I will most likely be able to hit the springs on one of the days you are at the springs around the 4th.by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
First Paul, its a long complicated path of events that have occurred at the Bowen Ranch and surrounding area. Much of what is discussed exist in a very large grey area in regards to provability. Thats just the nature of the situation up there. What I have written here at this forum has " not " been bickering and back stabbing. I have been discussing serious issues in an effort to undersby Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Sycamore Laughing, It is clear that thier are plenty of responsible and well intentioned folks who access through the Bowen Ranch. In speaking of " bad " people I was only referring to a ratio of a total as compared to the other access routes.by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
laughing Bear, Peace is not coming back to your vehicle with broken windows. As long as things like this are occuring people will express thier feelings about these issues. You state " people will continue to get hurt. Innocent people become victims ". Inherent in this statement is the idea that you " know about " people getting hurt up there. By what justifictation and who isby Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Yes, I agree with your sentiment MP :-)by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Yes Laughing Bear, It does create a negative image when somebody is shooting up or breaking car windows on the open routes around the Bowen Ranch and I doubt the people being affected are going to " let it go ". A question that comes to mind, who would benifit by such a negative image as this. Where do you park?by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Sycamore, Just look for Tuka ( husky ) and Sparky ( german shepard ) my faithful pooches and when you see a flash of sunlight shinning off a shaved head, thats me :-) Maybe I'll get a chance to hit the springs on the July 4 weekend. Are you going to the springs all three days?by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Sycamore, These people could have come from south of the springs by way of the Bradford Ridge trail, west of the springs from the Mohave dam, from the east coming down the PCT or even from the open routes on the northside of Deep Creek. What we need is a gate at the springs that every visitor must pass through which detects " bad " people. Once detected they would be branded on thier foby Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
MP, EEK, All you english majors will always be able to at least have one fun thing to do here at the DCHS forum, poke fun at my english skills, thats garunteeeeeed :-)by Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Naked Man, For myself, I have not stated on any post that I know of, that I feel that it is Mike Castro's " responsibility " to weed out the " bad " people at his gate. As you say, it is really impossible to truly know the true intentions of people who pass through the ranch. People are very good actors. Some people would want us to think that the folks who opt to go around thby Wizard - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
