    Reintroduction of grizzlys in Selway-Bitterroot Idaho/Montana

    While there is some quality of griz habitat (far less salmon now) in the SB Wilderness, the Bitterroot side canyons have a high conflict potential with people.....very steep and the Forest service people/stock trails will attract both people and bears. Best let natural recolonization occur,

    Montana Block Management Stamp?

    Have suggested such a stamp for years.....BMAs are important for pheasnt hunters as well as big game hunters. It is a "user pay" concept so if you dont choose to use it, the stamp doesnt cost you. It should apply to both residents as well as non-residents. There is indeed a need for a BM...

    Guide School Operator Pleads Guilty To Poaching

    Montana has some decent restitution penalties for poaching "trophy" sized animals, such as $8000 for large bull elk and $30,000 for bighorn sheep. They probably should be raised to keep up with inflation.. In fact, our law was derived from Colorado's some time ago when some of us with Montana...

    Salomon Quest 4D GTX

    Re sizing....I normally wear a 10 1/2 or 11 and I bought an 11 1/2 which fit perfectly. I bought these because I need a wide toe box but not wide foot which these fit the bill. The leather is rather soft which makes them comfortable but subject to scrape/cut wear. Also the leather/fabric...
