How
much comfort and ease does a hunter need? In St. Louis Country forest,
shooters are not only building "deer stands" larger than some houses,
but cutting down swathes of forest to make it easier to nail their
targets. John Myers writes:
“We’re getting over-built. We’re seeing mansions out
there — basically hunting shacks on stilts,” Bob Krepps, St. Louis
County land commissioner, told the News Tribune.It’s not just a couple
of boards slapped into a tree, but tree houses with stairways, decks,
shingled roofs, commercial windows, insulation, propane heaters,
carpeting, lounge chairs, tables and “even some with generators so they
have electricity,” Krepps said.
St. Louis County foresters say deer stands, tree-cutting and food plots are getting out of hand on county land
