I will start by saying this... I took on the task a couple months ago of trying to get with USFS and obtain permits for the Mt. Lemmon area. I have called the Sabino ranger station off and on looking for a single person.
Today, that person answered the phone. He didn't want to talk about the sport and had many misconceptions about airsoft, thinking it the same as paint ball. In the end, he didn't want to talk to to me.
In short Sabino/Catalina/Mt. Lemmon areas are right out for as long as that gentleman is employed at that station.
I will recant the conversation to anyone that would like to hear it in person, but I will not post it.
We have enjoyed many games in Santa Rita in the past. The Rangers there are quite understanding about our hobby and see that we are no danger to the wildlife and vegetation there. Sabino on the other hand do not want anything to do with us. Lets just leave it at that.
By the way, this is not a discussion thread. I just wanted to get the information out.
