    Off grid cabin friendly counties?

    It's CO, so anything with an appealing price tag probably has a tough situation for water. Not sure on actual permitting, but ever been to Crestone? If there's permitting, it'd be the most lax anywhere I've seen. Depends on what flavor of off grid neighbor you want to be around...

    More attacks on easements?

    Called my Congresswoman, who sits on the natural resources committee, to register my opposition to the House bill. She and I agree on very little, but she states she is a property rights supporter, so I framed my opposition on taking away the landowner's ability to sign a perpetual easement if...

    Who’s applying in CO?

    Just got mine in for deer, elk, pronghorn, plus points for moose and sheep. Anyone else notice that when you go to the list of orders in your account the options for how many will appear on the screen are 4, 5, 8, 16, 32? Never seen that before.

    Proposal to eliminate non-resident sheep tags in New Mexico

    How is NM reserving all bighorn tags for residents going to help Buzz? Seems on this point, each state's ability to regulate tags however they like, he's damn consistent.

    Contemplating a move from Colorado

    Switzerland may be the coolest country in Europe, but it's not the coolest in the EU.

    CO bighorn sheep, mountain goat, and pronghorn raffles

    Damn, that would be a sweet tag, and probably dangerous.

    CO bighorn sheep, mountain goat, and pronghorn raffles

    So when I saw 7 or 8 ewes/lambs on the river that was like a quarter of the whole population? Wow.

    Gila in late April - blown out?

    Thanks! Started doing some research last night and it's hard not to want to prioritize backcountry hot springs, maybe I'll get another chance to catch a fish from a hot spring pool, which I succeeded at only once. I'm not typically into long trips just to target an unusual fish, this just seems...

    Gila in late April - blown out?

    I've fished the gorge a bit, but if I go to taos I'll probably end up skiing more than fishing. Plus it seems to me the gorge could be awfully high late April, even in a shitty snow year. If I went towards the Gila, I'd be planning to backpack in somewhere remote, more interested in small fish...

    Gila in late April - blown out?

    Oy, hadn't looked at the snotels, I figured there wouldn't be much runoff, but two of three stakes at .1"? Ouch. Sounds like April might be the only time there's enough water to fish...

    Gila in late April - blown out?

    Live in SW CO, and I've always wanted to head down to the Gila to search for Gila trout. My wife is taking a 5 or 6 day trip out of Albuquerque in late April - I'm contemplating driving her to the airport then heading west to the Gila. Around here, depending on the year, late April can still be...

    No, there is not a way around it. Either you report their ssns, get the credit and they report the income, or no credit for you.

    Skis vs. snowshoes

    Don't feel qualified to give any sort of hunting advice, but here's what I did. I've flushed some snowshoes while backcountry skiing and seen lots of tracks. Chose a spot at similar elevation to where I've seen them (but without 30+ degree slopes), then just skinned somewhat aimlessly through...

    Skis vs. snowshoes

    Skis win, this time. Didn't have to work until 1 yesterday, fresh snow after a long dry spell had me eschewing lifts in favor of my second time on skis looking for snowshoes. Found this one stock still at the base of a tree. Twas ugly, as I shot it, but not fatal, had to chase after it to...

    Another rocker died

    I know he's over the top, but my love for meat loaf is deep and not ironic. Will be spinning bat out of hell on the record player tonight and singing along. I like my music like I like my life: everything louder than everything else.

    Toyota Tacoma TRD, etc...Seller's Market!

    This thread is a sad read. Wife totalled her '03 tacoma with 235K on the odometer last week (she's fine, somehow). Already preparing for the insurer to low ball the replacement value, and ugh, how do we find something to replace it? Need to tow a small trailer and use the bed regularly for...

    Plate ‘em up

    Osso bucco over polenta with a little spinach. I like to cook, and this was perhaps the best meal I've ever made, game or not. Easy, too, minus the sawing...
