    Wyoming winter 2023

    Yes, I attended the town hall meeting in Pinedale; it was a listening session. Some folks suggested a much lower tag limit for mule deer, & some suggested no deer tags at all this fall. WGFD's Director Nesvik & Gov Gordon talked a lot about the new highway overpasses/underpasses coming online...

    Wyoming Pronghorn Disease and Mortality

    Wyoming pronghorn hunters! Very, very bad news. From Wyofile, "Pronghorn are dropping dead across the western and central portions of the state only a handful of years after the last severe winter that also hammered them. And this year, pronghorn near Pinedale are suffering even more as a...

    Show me your square body

    My first vehicle, though mine wasn't this shiny: my Scout had two gas tanks, one with holes. I learned to drive a stick in this baby and drove it on the beach. Loved that thing.

    Alcohol

    Thank you for bringing this up. I'm glad to see so many supportive folks here that have questioned their use of alcohol. I decided to do "Dry January" and Oh My Goodness what a difference it has made. It's now the end of February and I still haven't had a beer or glass of wine. I realize now...

    Wyoming Snow

    I like to backcountry ski in the Upper Green and on Monday there were 2" of hard crust over 2 feet of sugar snow. When the skis submarined it took all my energy to get back on top. This happened with every step. Yes, most of the sagebrush is covered, but the south-facing slopes are a little...

    who has heard a mountain lion scream

    Yes in the Uintas, but has anyone ever heard porcupines? One night while working for the USFS I camped in an empty outfitter's camp. Too tired (or stupid) to properly hang my food, I hung it from a tent frame. That night I awoke to the sound of scratching on the tent frame, and what sounded...

    New hunting pack! Killik 2800

    Yes, those young bucks I worked with just couldn't wait to go on a fire! They didn't like being bossed around by a woman though. Ha! They learned quick enough. Too bad about your water. So far only our outside faucets are frozen, but the winter's not done with us yet! We keep the home fires...

    New hunting pack! Killik 2800

    Nice! What an awesome job. I kinda liked fire fighting, the comradery and the challenges. Getting a direct hit on the head from a helicopter's bucket full of water; hiking through the dark trying to find the fire line after a full day on trail crew, things like that are what I remember. On one...

    New hunting pack! Killik 2800

    Thank you FireLass! We're good here, as long as the fire wood holds out. Was -31 this morning and we have about 2' of snow. I love it! Kills the pine beetles and makes for great XC skiing. I don't go far from home on days like this. So, I'm guessing you fought fires, eh? Me too, from...

    New hunting pack! Killik 2800

    Bummer FireLass! Keep up that PT; it will be your friend forever. If you want to come over to Wyo. just to help me pack out, you're welcome! Ha! If I ever get an elk.

    5 things on your bucket list

    If you can't go to the Amazon, try the Asa Wright Nature Centre in Trinidad. Amazing birding there!

    5 things about you.

    1- Got pulled off a cliff via the long line of a Lama helicopter. 2- Found and inventoried 300+ miles of existing and previously-existing Forest Service trails (alone over 5 years) using only a map and compass (no GPS) and wrote the guide for the (no-name) range. 3- Saved a pronghorn & mule...
