    On midwestern ground - A Great Depression buck - intro to hunting blinds - A reminder hunting blind - Into the mist - remnant trout - uncertain future

    I had a hard time thinking of a title and for some reason a Cormac McCarthy style chapter heading made sense. I’ve grown up the in west and have hunted vast acres of public land my entire life. Most hunts involve miles and miles of legwork and occasionally sitting on strategic crossovers...

    Oh, the irony!

    I’m flying back from Michigan whitetail season and for what it’s worth my uncle was under the impression the DOI is one of the departments possibly being cut and he seemed excited about it and maybe semi supportive about disposing public lands. The other local folks around just went along with...

    Stoking the fire

    “I think there's some truth to that. but I also think that each person's hunting is an adventure on it's own - that everyone has to come to the place where you recognize that killing things is part of you are, and that's ok - even if you have a soft side that roots for the underdog, or for the...

    Boulder Hunting Ban

    I’m not saying a lot of it isn’t bogus, and I also think NAMWC is great and wildly successful in a lot of ways. My statement was generalized and not specific to this circumstance. In Oregon our last two governors have been women and gay. Colorado’s gov is gay. I’ve heard and read a lot of things...

    Boulder Hunting Ban

    When you break it down into numbers it makes it really easy to understand why your comment is correct. Only ~6% of the general population hunts. Wildlife is held in trust for everybody. This means the ~94% of the general public who doesn't hunt has a say in what kind of wildlife management...

    A brawl brewing in spokane?

    It seems like you are assuming 'hunters' as a group are distinctly different than 'wildlife conservation groups'. If so, you share that assumption with many members of the general public who have realized modern hunting is really just an extraction industry with little interest in meaningful...

    Family Trip to Oregon- Advice?

    I live near Newberg, fantastic area. If the weather cooperates 'wine country' is downright beautiful. If you're into the best local cuisine these are the best spots, they are spendy however.

    Sciatica

    Several things have changed my life, and one was a program called 'Foundation Training'. In my mid 20's I developed severe back pain and sciatica. A physician looked at my X-rays and told me he was not optimistic. The thought of not being able to do the outdoor activities I centered my life...

    Craigslist to Connect With Landowners?

    For me I have found the best ways to connect with landowners is to connect with the community. Volunteering, community trash pick ups, picnics, church events if you are religious, local non profits, hanging around the areas you like regularly, visiting the same local diners regularly, being...

    American prairie. What's the issue?

    Thank you for this post. Understanding what we have lost, and what we are losing, is incredibly painful. These areas are part of our heritage
