I knew PERC's Terry Anderson would be on this quickly. He just came out with an oped - What a difference a president makes.
So Sienkiewicz, doing the job he was hired to do, following the FS Policy and the same actions as a number before him, well prior to Obama ever taking office is ignored...
I have a close hunting/angling friend, here in Montana, that was diagnosed with a rare cancer and received stem cell treatment. Looking for a compatible donor match, they found it in a Native Brazilian woman. Turns out he had a wee bit of Cherokee in him. Thankfully, he is still alive.
Due to...
Topgun, I agree, it was a very good read and I hope, more than sufficient, should they try to appeal, that this case will be swiftly swatted aside.

DV-2017-137 Judge Langton Opinion & Order
The Ravalli County Attorney and Deputy Attorney did a very good job with their Defendant's Rule 12 Motions to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction and for Count IV for failure to state a claim and Brief in support.
Judge...
Good news... I called the District Court (calling 2x a week for a bit now to check on the status) and Judge Langton ruled to dismiss the Cox/Bugli case. They are scanning and emailing it to me shortly. As soon as I receive it I will post it.
So unless the landowners take this to the MT Supreme...
Brad Wilson lives near the west side of the Crazies in Wilsall. He publicly recreates and hunts there. Over the years, he has seen growing obstruction, so he began the Friends of the Crazies to help fight back this year.
District ranger axed for protecting public access
I disagree that Lee's posting was stupid, and he wasn't a Director at the time. It was publicly available information after it was sent out, just like the previous years emails to seasonal employees, which more specifically state for the public not to as well.
And the Law Enforcement Officers...
Just a heads up, when I was doing all that research on Sessions yesterday that turned up all those connections, I saw an article by Zinke stating when he was running for House he picked out certain members to get in touch with, to network, Sessions was one of those. Then another article where...
Texans Trying to "Mess" With Montana and the Nation Again, this isn't just about the Crazy Mountains anymore (I know not you Ken)
When I grew up in Texas, the State had a problem with littering, so they began the "Don't Mess With Texas" anti littering road sign campaign, which of course, Texas...
Brad is on my newsletter list. He is another hunter that shared his letter to the 2 senators about access issues in the Crazies and got no response from Daines. I haven't had time to begin the work on the West side of the Crazies yet, so some of the information he and others have provided will...
I feel either Facebook would waste time in duplication/diversion of conversations held here on the forum.
This forum is well monitored, most people may not realize the time that goes into that effort. A Facebook account would add to that monitoring labor to maintain the standard that Randy...
Here is the Blog copy of the Newsletter I just sent the first batch out on (my server only allows 250 emails an hour, so I have to break the nearly 1000 into 4 mailings).
I have an ask:
If you have been in the Crazy Mountains...
perhaps you received a citation when you were on a FS...
I am creating a new thread, because this isn't just about Rob's trespass case, this is bigger and broader, began before Rob went into the Crazies. This is like the Durfee Hills situation, where that thread is a one stop shopping place for those issues in chronology and information.
1. Rob...
Hem, they didn't state names because they don't have them yet. They could name the names, and people think, "so what?" But what I have been working on to get out, hopefully tomorrow, is that A, B, and C, alleged and did 1,2,3 - refuted by this evidence..., I feel, is far more important than just...
I have read through years of FS and seasonal help maintenance reports and the cows, a number of landowners cows, have been brought up, that there were cow pies all over the campground, riparian areas destroyed, fences downed and cattle out well beyond the lease time period.
I have been getting the next batch of documents done to post, it has a refutation pdf collection of pages including screenshots and FOIA pages, as well as the original letter from the Montana Farm Bureau Federation, which includes MOGA, to Senator Daines; the letter from certain landowners to Ag...
First, I have to apologize for misspelling Alex's last name, which I have been doing for 3 years not realizing it was wrong, running on an incorrect memory. I profusely apologized to him this morning, correcting everything I could on the site and blog, but can't correct the email newsletter sent...
