The 150 acres of property we own has been in the family for over 100 years and we own all the timber and mineral rights on the land. Thanks Bushman

A lot of communitie's bylaws are "complaint enforced"...so if you are a good neighbour that stays under the radar....

We are just East of Larder Lake, it is Gods Country. Not much for neighbors up in the Bush. I see a lot of land up that way for sale "zoned RURAL with an AW WILDERNESS" where you can make a hunt camp bigger than 500 square feet. Bushman

dabones Member	# Posted: 29 Jun 2011 22:03 Reply alot of areas up there are 'unorganized townships' there are no permits required and such, you can do mostly whatever you want.. you have to check into your township.. most likely you can do anything you want where you are, how far away is your closest neighbour? and are they full or part time residents?
