    Determine if state land is huntable

    Thanks TBass. I drove by the area and still can’t tell anything, so I’ve emailed Fwp for starters. Thanks

    Determine if state land is huntable

    Thanks guys. I think it is open then, as a corner crosses the main highway (actually crosses so it’s not a corner hopping issue). Thanks again

    Determine if state land is huntable

    But in Montana it can also be used for other purposes that I think can block access. Should I assume no buildings means it’s open? Thanks!

    Determine if state land is huntable

    I’m specifically curious how to find out in MT, but there are some state land chunks (via OnX maps) that seem like they could be decent deer hunting. I don’t see any formal trails or parking area, so I’m not sure how to tell if it is open for hunting or leased out/closed off. Is there any trick...

    Another Kalispell resident here. I think all the advice so far is great. I’m always overwhelmed by the options with all the local public land. PM me if you have any specific questions from local hiking trails to the best breweries ;)

    Bear spray guys

    One of the bear spray companies makes a plastic tube with a yellow lid and a foam wrap. You wrap the foam around the can then put it upside down in the can. Supposedly if it ever were to go off or leak the foam absorbs the capsaicin (I’m going off memory). I have a few and usually keep the...

    2018 MT Turkey Regs

    I’ve only tried going out for turkeys once two years ago but plan to give it a go again this season here in the northwest corner. While I’d prefer public land, the posts here align with what I hear from others that private is where the birds are. Is there any system set up that would allow...

    MT Proposed Weapon Restricted area in 130

    I just heard about a FWP proposal for a weapons restricted area in 130 Swan Lake area. I couldn’t find much about it such as where the are proposed is, what’s driving it, impacts, etc. Anyone have any insight? Just trying to get educated

    Mt hd 290

    Dan, https://www.udap.com/mm5/FAQS Near the bottom they say it would spray as low as 0F, but should be stored above 32F for better shelf life. Makes me wonder about all the times I leave it on my pack holster in the bed of the truck. Normally I put it in one of the foam cases so if it were to...

    Mt hd 290

    Alright everybody, Aunt Molly is open, Archery only, for deer until Dec 15th and elk until Jan 01. It’s an interesting change from the environment in Seeley as there was some sage brush and hardwood trees with leaves vs mostly pines. This with freezing temps and no snow was very loud. I also...

    Mt hd 290

    Phutch, thanks for posting the regs for others. I’ll only be able to be there Saturday. So while it will be great scouting for next season, any advice for this specific trip would have been appreciated. I always prefer hiking-scouting vs e-scouting, but sometimes that is one of a thousand things...

    Mt hd 290

    I found it from a shoulder season posting on the FWP site but the general refs list bucks open to Dec 15 and browtined or antlerless open to Jan 01. Archery only on both. Unless I’m completely misreading them... I don’t know the terrain either way or if the WMA or block management areas are...

    Mt hd 290

    Hey everyone, just thought I’d prove here about the 290 District in Montana. Any thoughts on elk this late in the season? Are they all on private now or is there still a chance of some on the small amount of public? Is the Aunt Molly WMA easy to traverse or are the creeks and river too wide and...

    Tactics for elk hunting after the snow falls

    These PMs are killing me. I’m trying to learn too! I’m not sure where the OP is but here in Northwestern Montana there are super thick woods, so I’ve always struggled finding good places where I can glass. Heading out this weekend to try again so great timing!
