    Landowner will close access to two Colorado 14ers after lawmakers rejected legislation limiting liability

    That's disappointing! I would be fine to sign a waiver in order to get access and mark off another 14er!

    Hunting groups quit CPW’s Colorado Outdoor Partnership, citing lack of focus on wildlife

    I'm not an organization - point me to one and I may consider it

    Hunting groups quit CPW’s Colorado Outdoor Partnership, citing lack of focus on wildlife

    LOL - sounds like some of my meetings at work, but I still go. When neither action is going to get the results you want which is the better approach, still show up and try or go home? It has to be INCREDIBLY frustrating to put in that work, I get that, and then have that work go nowhere, also...

    Hunting groups quit CPW’s Colorado Outdoor Partnership, citing lack of focus on wildlife

    I don't have a much to share on the departure of these organizations but I would recommend that it's better to be in the room where decisions are made than be outside of the room, with no voice, complaining about the decisions being made. Ironically I was reviewing these organizations last week...

    Colorado 2023... here we go!

    As a perpetual procrastinator, is there a reason one would want to apply early? Don't the applications all just sit and wait until the draw date?

    A growing problem

    https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/nov/02/unhoused-people-shelters-homelessness-to-jail-cycle Something reminds me of a Ebenezer Scrooge quote - are there no poor houses or jails?

    A growing problem

    You are right - there is no easy fix. These two items aren't directly correlated but they result from similar situations. Shipping people from one place to another is the NIMBY (Not in my back yard) solution. I doubt people who are homeless really want to be so. Yes, if housing is high then move...

    MtnElk's Season of Firsts... Tag Soup Edition

    Yeah, that warm sleeping bag is going to be hard to get out of! I will be heading out tomorrow as well. Good luck and stay warm. On the plus side should be good weather for the roads.

    "Greenwashing at it's best"

    Let's bring back the returnable beer bottles! If only the homebrewers didn't just keep them for their own. That was green!

    "Greenwashing at it's best"

    I was referencing Xcel or any other energy utility that is increasing energy production through oil and gas. Conoco and other have a strong interest to keep up the production, especially if the prices increase. 🤑

    "Greenwashing at it's best"

    I'm going to have to disagree on that one for you. While I am not advocating for everyone to buy some and put them up, they do work in many more situations than what you are suggesting. On your second point, I would like to know what energy company is committing to maintaining their oil and...

    That's greenwashing! Not cool

    "Greenwashing at it's best"

    I can do that for you... I am using 250 watt/hours per mile, on average. That means I use 250 kWh for your 1000 miles. According to Xcel energy that would add up to 256.75 pounds of CO2 on their current supply sources. Taking a 2019 Honda Civic (same year, efficient car) that gets 42 mpg on...

    "Greenwashing at it's best"

    Yeah - you're right. This is hitting near the limit of my knowledge but there are options beyond just that. Keeping the utilization local may prevent the need of a transformer if the invertor matches the destination voltage (or I am way off, LOL). The tax break issue resides with so many other...
