    Uncle Larry's Last Elk Hunt

    Many of you have followed my Uncle Larry over the last 15 years. In 2022 he drew an Arizona late season tag. Being he was a resident, I knew he had the points to draw. I just didn't know if he had the health to do it. He did ten years of experimental chemo for Mantel Cell Lymphoma. The side...

    Time to change FWP Director

    In today's world, everyone defends their team and claims any action is politically motivated. In some cases that might hold true, yet in other instances I think it is helpful to look at history. Here's a bit of relevant history to those claiming this effort is merely politics. Many of the...

    FWP being systematically dismantled

    It gets talked about here year-round, every year, including election years. At least on this forum. The topic of wildlife, wildlife management, game agencies being interfered with by politicians, politicians screwing up public access, politicians doing special favors for their buddies, you name...

    Mule Deer & Migrations with Dr. Kevin Moneith

    This is one of the more fascinating podcasts I've ever done with a research scientist. Kevin is a passionate about hunting as he is about mule deer and pronghorn research, so he's the kind of guest who can take a lot of complex information and make it applicable to hunting. If you want to...

    CO Mountain Lion Ballot Initiative: Continuous Updates

    Yes, it has been dissected many different ways over the last 18 month when it was known that this was coming. The strategy is to message in ways that are appealing to the undecided Front Range person. That means not having old gray-haired farts like me be the messenger. And, the message is...

    Alaska Caribou

    That's a great story of a great hunt. Thanks for sharing here. Hoping the foot is improving. That looks seriously painful.

    Washington Post Opinion Piece Completely Misses the Point

    Here's the very abbreviated version for how most of them get completed, with some being far more complex. Land Project Managers who work for RMEF (LPMs) in the many different regions are to build relationships with landowners who are interested in keeping lands undeveloped. The hope is that...

    Bury Me In The Mackenzie Mountains

    Yes, at Norman Wells you have to do that to get export permits. We weren’t allowed to come behind the counter where he was doing the measurements. From what I could see on his sheet he wrote “99cm” for my sheep. He moved his paperwork further behind the counter and I could not read what he wrote...

    Bury Me In The Mackenzie Mountains

    Yes, some of the caribou were at higher elevation than the sheep. It is like a cross between elk hunting and sheep hunting. Way different than Barren Ground. Also a bit larger body sizes. If you told me the only species I got to hunt would be Mountain Caribou, but I got to hunt them every year...

    Bury Me In The Mackenzie Mountains

    The outfitter measures every animal they take and he keeps meticulous records. They had my ram at 38 3/4. One guy had it at 39, but he's not the "official" for that camp. They tried to get mine to 14" of mass, but he was just short. They put it at 13 3/4. For score they had mine at 160 1/2"...

    Bury Me In The Mackenzie Mountains

    August 20th (Caribou Day #1, Part 2) I hiked further ahead while the three guys stayed glassing near the horses. If these bulls did move ahead, we need to look at those other openings up the drainage and hope to catch sight of them crossing. About twenty minutes later I move back toward the...

    Bury Me In The Mackenzie Mountains

    August 20 (Caribou Day #1, Part 1) It was still raining hard when I woke. Riley had made a great call to use the hot day for packing out and banking on colder and wetter weather that caribou seem to enjoy. Everyone at breakfast was talking about the lightning strike, though Riley said he...
