The Cooper Landing group wants traps to be placed at least 100 feet away from trails and campgrounds in popular areas including the southern part of Resurrection Pass.
Winter trapping season is starting up again next month, and a group of Cooper Landing residents that have long wanted to make trails safer for their dogs are still working to create regulations on trapping in recreational areas. But they’re worried about their chances of passing those regulations through the Board of Game this cycle.
Temple said the group is proposing setbacks in popular areas like the Russian River and Quartz Creek campgrounds, along the Snug Harbor and Bean Creek roads, and on trails like the Lower Russian Lake Trail and the southern part of Resurrection Pass. The group would also like to require signage alerting recreators to traps in the area.
It’s not just Temple who’s concerned about their chances. Nicole Schmitt, executive director of the Alaska Wildlife Alliance, said no proposals for trapping setbacks have been approved by the board since 2010.
