    Leica, Steiner, & Leupold Binos

    I’ve been using the Steiner Predator 8x42 for several years now. No complaints and it looks like they are now selling on Amazon for 250 bucks. I’m almost certain I paid more 10 or so years ago.

    First elk

    Congrats! Getting the first one is a serious rush, and also a great lesson in what it takes to pack it out!

    I wish there were more friendliness

    I will say most of the folks I've mentored hunting I had decent experiences with, but they were all friends/family prior to hunting with me. Most of them were already hunters, and had their own set-ups with everything needed, including vehicle(s). I'd say if you want to learn to hunt an area...

    Well, this is spot on. Agree on all these points.

    Getting so fired up!!!

    Looks like the flat tops are getting the first good little snow this evening. Hope that continues for a few weeks off and on.

    CA hunters TIA

    I saw the bear outside my rental cabin in August, literally in Ponderosa. Guessing he was trash and cooler raiding, because not much natural feed outside of that small pocket that was protected from the fires. Think the elevation is like 7500 maybe. I’m not familiar with the Northern area of...

    Elk did not tip over.

    Sounds to me like you did just fine. Congrats

    CA hunters TIA

    You‘ll need to put boots on the gound for sure and you will have lots of company. Lots of that zone burned. I was really shocked how much burned, and how bad it was. Most of the pines fully burned and are dead, thousands and thousands of acres. Even some decent sized sequoias burned bad...

    CA hunters TIA

    I was just up there a month ago doing a cabin trip with the kid and G-Kids. I can tell you everything is burned bad above Camp Nelson to Ponderosa, and all of the way between Ponderosa to Trail of 100 giants. Its a moon scape from last year's fire, and saw very little new growth or browse for...

    Is the price of gas hindering your out-of-state or in-state hunt plans?

    Just paid 6.29 for regular unleaded today in OC, Ca. Hoping Nv, Ut, and Co are more friendly in a few weeks. Can't say I've ever set aside as much cash to go hunt, and the majority of the budget is fuel. It's a pain in the ass to size everything down to do this solo from my Subaru Forester...

    My 2022 Colorado Goat Hunt

    That's pretty cool dude. When I was a kid hunting with my Dad in that area for elk n deer, just a little lower, I glassed many a goat up high. I remember asking my Dad if we could hunt those since we always so saw many there, to which he replied "no, they smell like piss". Wished I would not...

    Squirrel Taxidermy in Colorado

    That's one of them ninja squirrels with body armor. I thought everyone knew to use the big stuff on them? I'd pull out the deer rifle, maybe a 30'06 with one of them copper bullets, in case you want to take a shoulder shot.

    Anyone in the Kalispell Area Missing a Husky?

    I bet that wolf responded well to snacks you had in your pack and probably sat when you told him to sit!

    Taking a back up rifle?

    I’ve always had a backup rifle, but probably won’t bring one this year. I’m having to seriously trim down what I bring, due to not taking the diesel pickup because of fuel costs. No hunt partners this year either to share costs/load. Operating 850 miles from home in a Subaru Forester poses...

    Burris Fullfield

    Duplicate post- let this one die

    All this can make me think of is; ok lady, it’s your elk. Just let me get my saddle off and I’ll be on my way.,
