Obligatory loading the Subaru pic from yesterday. I‘m probably bringing too much crap, but that is always the case.
Leaving here shortly. Plan is to drive down to Denver and then take I-25 down through Raton rather than try to mess with the whole Leadville mountain pass area mess this time of...
Tomorrow I am pulling outta the snow and cold that is NW CO in February and am headed to SE NM to chase Barbary sheep DIY and solo for a week. No clue what this hunt has in store but I’m hoping it will be an adventure either way.
When I drew this tag last April, I was still living and working...
I’m still waiting for it to happen. Headed to SE NM this weekend to chase Barbary sheep on a tag I drew last spring. Solo DIY. Not sure what’s in store but it’s gonna be an adventure either way. Hoping to have a fraction of the success of @cgasner1.

Is this what your gun is supposed to look like? I took a brief dip on the last day of the season here in NW CO while chasing a decoy that was being washed downriver by ice. And then a second tumble in the snow while walking back up river. Needless to say my day was done. Luckily I got the shells...
I believe the modifications to some elk and antelope tags in NW CO are outlined in this document.

I was unable to make any volunteer projects last spring and summer as we had just moved back home to NW CO but I’m really keen to make a few this upcoming year.
A single goldeneye hen was all I had to show for my NYE day hunt this morning. Better than the skunk and I always enjoy getting in a hunt on the last day of the year. A year ago today, I was hunting quail in central IL. Funny how much things can change in a single year. Happy new years to all.
My six year old son has been begging me to take him duck hunting for the last year or two. I finally managed to drag him along for a short afternoon hunt yesterday. Only opportunity was when we walked down to the river and a few ducks got up and I managed to knock down a single hen. After that...
A Christmas Day solo grouse hunt in the Wasatch NF while visiting my sister in Utah for the holidays. No grouse were harmed but I did flush a bird today. I’ll take any excuse to tote the old model 12 in 16 gauge into the mountains this time of year. Merry Christmas to all.
A short Christmas Eve grouse hunt in the Uintah National Forest while visiting my sister in Utah for the holidays. No grouse were harmed but it was good to take the old model 12 for a hike.
I bought the summit XT this year after watching the final rise video side by side comparison of the XT and regular summit. Watch if if you wanna get into the nitty gritty differences between the two.
