Count to ten before ditching that Hike Safe card

[sardog1]

The answer to FAQ 4 should make it perfectly unclear: http://www.wildlife.state.nh.us/safe/index.html

The top paragraph reads "An individual may still be liable for response expenses if they are deemed to have recklessly, negligently or intentionally created a situation requiring an emergency response."

Are they taking away the only advantage to buying a card?

No, "they" are blundering. The statute hasn't been changed in this regard. I will send another message - without the Oxford comma, which has been serially missing for some time now in most writing.
