Growing and growing, sixfold in Wisconsin. Probably because they harass the lawful landowing miners instead of focusing on unlawful activity.
Maybe miners appear weak and unorganized. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100301/ap_on_...GltcGFjdGRydWc- This post has been edited by ColoradoProspector: Mar 6 2010, 01:37 PM

There has been some news about the increasing problem of pot growers using explosives and posting armed guards in sniper locations to protect their crops in remote locations on public lands. Some of the more sophisticated operations use remote cameras to check up on possible thieves or law enforcement efforts. Be careful out there when you are prospecting, especially near mountain streams as the growers are starting to developing elaborate irrigation systems in areas that have water and soil types suitable for cultivation. These are the same places prospectors are drawn to.
