Suggestions for a quail gun?
Some great options already listed. I've got a franchi 48AL that fits the bill perfectly. Recently acquired for about $300 from a bird hunting mentor who's aging out of the upland game. 20ga, 5.2-5.4 lbs (don't remember exactly but it's even lighter than my 20ga Beretta o/u). Mine has 26"... -

How close to camp?
There's been several threads about this and I suspect it varies wildly by location, type of camp etc. Some of our best luck / experiences have often come by getting on the bulls we hear bugling from the tent at night, especially in areas / times where the bulls only talk at night. We try... -
Little piles of white papers
A bear was shitting in the woods one day, and a rabbit came hopping by. Bear says, "Hey Rabbit, do you have a problem with shit getting stuck in your fur?" "Nope," replied Rabbit smugly. So Bear grabbed the rabbit and wiped his ass with him.- crock239

Tillamook Oregon
Lots of great suggestions already. Ecola State Park, just north of Cannon Beach, has a beautiful hike along coastal cliffs...if you do it, park on the south end of the park and hike the coastal trail to Indian Beach and back, about 2 miles round trip.- crock239

Cicadas
We usually have some around every year...but we're on the edge of the overlap range on the map, so I guess I'll post up pics later if things get weird here.- crock239

Tics not Tik Toc
Yeah, a quick search on tick-borne illness maps will tell you that if you live in upper Midwest (especially MN or WI) or in the northeast you'd be wise to get on board with a major tick prevention program. Here's a Lyme disease map (doesn't work well for me on mobile, but does on PC)...- crock239

Tics not Tik Toc
Same...ticks on dog in January and February in Iowa! Nuts. And with Lyme disease endemic here, it's very scary. I've been treated twice in last 3 years. Agree...transference to my kids is the scariest part. I picked up permethrin concentrate and genric spray bottle at local feed...- crock239

Grand Canyon & Sedona Family Trip
For sure...could just about pet the elk and mule deer hanging around the S Rim across from the visitor center and near the lodges. When I was there as a kid we saw bighorn sheep but we didn't see any of those this time around.- crock239

Grand Canyon & Sedona Family Trip
We had a good trip. It was spring break (mid-March) so very crowded, and we had some winter weather to contend with at Grand Canyon. In Sedona, we hiked Doe Mtn, Fay Canyon Arch, and Birthing Cave...all were good. We didn't do some of the most popular Sedona hikes (Devils Bridge) because the...- crock239
