    Nevada Antelope Unit 33 Late Rifle - Help Please!

    You shouldn't have trouble finding a good buck - especially if you look over the next ridge away from the roads. Also as mentioned, take at least two spare tires. That country eats up tires.

    Custer Loses For The 147th Time

    Being a native Montanan, the Custer Battle has always been a compelling bit of history to me. Visiting the battlefield, especially in the heat of the summer or on a lonely, less crowded fall day, is quite simply haunting. I have a couple of full bookshelves of materials, old and recent (based...

    This Happened to me

    My THTM story (at least one of them...) “Spring” musk ox hunts involve temperatures that rarely get above -10°F, lots of wind, and being endlessly towed across the frozen tundra and ice in a teeth-jarring wooden qamutik behind the Inuit guide’s snowmobile in search of the prehistoric beasts...

    Iconic Montana panorama

    Always a special place to me. My great-grandparents homesteaded the farm just to the east of Freezeout. Back in the day, my grandmother even won a local beauty pageant and was named Miss Freezeout Lake (when it was a bit less odiferous - as she always added to the story ;)).

    History Found In the Field

    I was always told such circles where "teepee circles", but Eric's comments gave me pause. I did spend probably too much time this evening on Google Scholar (just as I often do for my "day job" as a college engineering professor), and I found several research papers discussing the archaeology of...

    I hate this part

    So sorry. I've got my chocolate at my feet right now, and tears in my eyes.

    A sad day

    It always brings pain, and warm memories, when I hear of other's losses. So sorry for you and your family.

    Endurance

    Gotta say, I was thrilled to see they found it and that it is still in remarkable condition, almost a testament to the whole survival saga.

    Another rocker died

    However it worked out, Bat Out of Hell became became our must play tunage for Wyoming antelope hunting. When luck was not going our way, the kids would insist on popping in that CD, and "I'll be go to Hell" if things didn't usually turn around. And that's the story I am sticking to!

    HTers at sheep show this week? Raise your hand,

    Oak, you've read my mind! I would be lying if I said I haven't ponder the same money inequities -- but my reservations are all made as well.

    Would You Take a Wounded Animal on Your Tag

    I'm in with the have-done-it crowd. Aside from finishing off a few critters wounded by folks I was hunting with, I still vividly remember hunting the far reaches of the Missouri Breaks way before it was on the national radar and similar to others' stories, a couple of hours after hearing a...

    The Storms of Life

    Extra "Horns"

    I saw a doe 4 days ago in northern New Mexico that had a pyramid-like bump on the middle of its nose.

    Your most inept TSA experience ?

    Not TSA, but similar land border security crossing from one Middle Eastern country to the next. I was one government-sponsored travel, had a "get out of jail free", "please extend all courtesy" letter from the US embassy, before walking through the scanner, I showed the letter, explained that I...

    Badgers

    I agree with most, I think they are cool critters and add excitement and smiles to the outdoors on the rare occasions when I get to see them. However...when I was a teenager I had summer jobs working at a cemetery. A family of badgers moved in to the nicely manicured grounds and as you can...

    Tanzania proposes cable car for Kilimanjaro

    How timely. Just this evening I was trying to convince my wife we need to do the Kilimanjaro trek before we get to much older. Better get on it!

    Anybody watching the College World Series?

    As has been popular to say of late, just like elections, choices have consequences. It is a sad deal for NC State, but the two unvaccinated players made their personal choices and it unfortunately affected the rest of their team. That's where the discussion should be, among the team.

    Favorite hunting memory

    As with everyone, opening the memory banks leads to a flood of adventures that give me a rush of warm smiles. But three that jump out of the Dad in me: (1) My oldest son's first cow elk hunt. On a very steep uphill shot on the cow, the rifle bucked and solidly scoped him above his right eye...
