Access to North Cherokee WMA temporarily closed

I just saw this on Faceplant, so I can't vouch for the validity: https://wgrv.com/2024/10/05/usda-fo...oudV8Ng0HWCQMPv6zQ_aem_l7B2GUyp7BWyI_bxvUQM1g

Hmmmm. I wonder how that works. I live in Carter County and can literally walk into the National Forest. They are no even going to come close to here for clean-up of any kind.

Same here I am in Unicoi and can walk to the national forest from my property. Are they just saying the roads are closed or the entire property?

I know the roads are closed. I haven't heard if North CNF is totally shut down though. Gonna be some pizzed off bear hunters in a couple of weeks.

now I wonder if it's all closed I seen Greene county was on the list. Feds must have shut it all down. And nobody will have an answer most likely if it's the entire forest. Who can a man call to find out.

They did this in parts of Va that wasn't even hit by the storm. We flooded the congressman and senator. They did get parts reopened for us that was not affected.

It's just dumb to shut the whole thing down. I understand shutting access roads, but I literally walk up and hunt right below the line and up into the lower portion.

Any updates on this. I know that where I usually go in Washington Co got hit really bad but I usually wait till rifle season to go in there
