Submitted March 5, 2013**
Seattle, Washington
Before: FERNANDEZ, W. FLETCHER, and RAWLINSON, Circuit Judges.
Appellants Matthew Van Lith and Kailey Doan, who were convicted of
marijuana possession at an Idaho campground, challenge the district court’s denial
of their motions to suppress.
The district court properly denied the motions to suppress because, under the
totality of circumstances, the Bureau of Land Management ranger “had a
particularized and objective basis for suspecting” that Van Lith and Doan were
engaged in criminal activity. United States v. Basher, 629 F.3d 1161, 1165 (9th
Cir. 2011) (citation omitted).
AFFIRMED.
