This can't end well... Sorry to hear about your ice house. If your name was on it and it was sitting ashore, they could have called and gave you a warning ticket for littering instead of having it hauled off lol! Two weeks seems like a long time to get it out of there though. Hope it ends well and you get it back. Do they continue to charge daily fees until you claim it?
Wow. I never leave anything around like that. Sucks they took it. I don't know why they didn't notify you the day it was removed.
You can fight this, win, and if done correctly they will pay your court fees. Bunch of bs....sounds to me like who ever made that call got picked on a little too much in highschool.
He isn't going to win nothing. Have you ever tried to sue the government? Very difficult. Why didn't you notify the park you wanted to leave it in the parking lot for so long? I'm surprised they waited the 14 days to act on it. it was in a parking lot , it's not a storage lot. It was your responsibility to take care off it, not the park Nazi's. It seems the park has a rule that covers just about everything, including leaving items in a parking lot unattended. The tow operator can't just keep it. He has to post a notice in the paper 3 times and then have an auction and it's sold to the highest bidder.you might be ahead to negotiate the cheapest rate you can with him. You could also ask the park people what rule you violated and if you think they are wrong, call Cheyenne, they maybe able to help. BTW, did they issue you a citation?
I was fishing past 10:00pm but didn't have a camping overnight pass, I only had a day pass. I didn't see anything on the wonderful signs at the entry point about needing a camping pass to fish late. I told this guy that I wasn't camping and that I didn't see anything about needing a pass for fishing late, and I wasn't going to be staying overnight.. He got cranky and threw a fit like a little kid and said pay the fee or leave.
I heard some of the stories about how rude these park patrolman can be, but didn't think it was real, until I had a chance to visit with one of them. Maybe it was just the one that I ran into?

Real professional guy...Think he must have been one of those people who was picked on as a kid and now he flexes his authority.
You would think they could have called you to give you a warning that it has to go or will be towed...It seems like maybe they enjoy being on the mean side.

Also, which Park Official came up with the stupid parking set up at the boat parking areas. Obviously, none of them have a trailer. It took some real brain power to come up with this ridiculous set up, especially the one at wind creek ramp. Maybe I'm missing something?
