    CPW director on leave after complaint of racist comment

    Maybe Denver Water and the CGS use the same time portal. That's kinda the same feeling I got from them, one department in particular was the biggest good ol' boy club I've ever seen. Think guys literally cat calling women jogging by while they were working...

    CPW director on leave after complaint of racist comment

    I dealt with DW from about 2011 until 2016, helped develop and maintain some of their recreation sites while working for the county they were in. You're totally right, it's all very subjective. Usually it's easy to pick up on which agencies or departments have a healthy atmosphere and which...

    CPW director on leave after complaint of racist comment

    So I've worked for 3 different government agencies at the county level over the years (all in Colorado), and while working for one county I was subcontracted to work closely with a colorado public utilities company and the USFS under their supervision for various projects over the course of...

    CPW director on leave after complaint of racist comment

    I am very close friends with two cpw employees (one male and one female) and my opinion from what I hear on a regular basis is that cpw has got to be one of the most disorganized and poorly run agencies I've ever seen or heard of. When any workplace is rife with that amount of animosity and...

    Extra Stupid Window Stickers

    If it was there at time of purchase...why wouldn't the previous owner have removed it prior to selling? That can't have made for a good sales pitch. And why wouldn't the new owner remove it immediately? That's a whole new category of laziness. If it wasn't there, the new owner wasted no time...

    The non-resident Wilderness law…serious question…

    I knew a guy that had fake Wyoming license plates that he snapped over the top of his plates after having his wiper blades and gas cap removed at a WY wilderness trailhead, presumably because he had CO plates and a bunch of fly fishing stickers. I always wondered if a displaying fictitious...

    Turkey Hunter Interactions

    That's also the theory that I think makes the most sense. If I were in his shoes, there's just no way I don't see me and/or my wife.

    Turkey Hunter Interactions

    It definitely seems like a such an implausible scenario but after yesterday I can say that some people are either incredibly unobservant or just plain unpredictable.

    Turkey Hunter Interactions

    In hindsight waiving doesn't seem like a great idea at all so that's not going to happen again, I'll for sure be yelling loudly next time. Like @Islander suggested, it's too risky with armed people that close. Lesson learned there. I hope to not sound like a discourteous hunter when I say...

    Turkey Hunter Interactions

    How would that conversation have gone? I approach somebody's tent in the dark at 5 am and yell out asking if they are turkey hunting and if so we are too? I'm not sure how to coordinate with someone that chose to camp at the end of a well maintained road in a popular area within thousands of...

    Turkey Hunter Interactions

    Thanks, all in all it was a great morning with a lot of action both good and bad. I like the orange handkerchief idea.

    Turkey Hunter Interactions

    Yesterday was the opener for Colorado Turkey and I was successful in getting a Tom within the first hour of daylight which we all know never happens. My wife was with me this time and we also had an interesting experience with another hunter that could have ended dangerously. We parked at...

    Colorado Deer Seasons

    There are 2 different units that I've hunted during 2nd, 3rd, and 4th seasons. One unit is sort of the classic Colorado Mule Deer hunt and absolutely gets better the later the season gets as the majority of deer migrate out of the higher elevations and concentrate down in the sage/pinon/juniper...

    The collapse of society.

    I'm not too picky when it comes to lawnmower beer but it does go down a little easier with a cool looking can.

    The collapse of society.

    You think that's bad? Last week I bought a case of the limited edition Busch Trout Cans but when I got home I realized someone had pulled a switcheroo and it was full of the normal boring cans. I should have known something was up with the packing tape on the box...

    New Mexico Stream Access Win

    Still waiting for my call back from the State of New Mexico regarding clarification of what exactly will be legally allowed with this stream access "win" in the New Mexico Supreme Court. It still seems murky to me and others I have talked to. According to this video posted 2 weeks ago by the...

    New Mexico Stream Access Win

    Gotcha, yeah I've heard that about certain ranches in NM where they still play by old west rules. Back to the river access topic. I haven't really been to too many places in New Mexico where I thought it would be great to float through this stretch, but several places would be awesome to be...
