    Glen Canyon

    This essay from HCN provides an interesting update and nicely relates back to the original post from 2007 (16 years ago!) on Katie Lee, Dave Wegner. Some quotes from the 2007 original that stick out to me: "Even the Bureau of Reclamation stated last summer that it was highly unlikely that Lake...

    Thanks for sharing, this line got a chuckle out of me, "Johnson studies the deposit of mud, silt and sand that she and many other geologists informally call the “Dominy Formation” after Floyd Dominy."

    Drought for the west

    You are correct. "On October 1, 2021 the NRCS updated its 30-year normals period from 1981-2010 to 1991-2020. The NRCS uses normals in a variety of products to represent data as a percent of normal. Changing normals impacts percentages and requires users to re-calibrate themselves."...

    Public servants and “journalists”

    Anyone following grizzly bears for more than the last two years would know Servheen's name from all of his prior work with bears over the last 35 years. Maybe some were wondering why a delisting proponent no longer favors state control. "By the time he retired from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife...

    They ate all the deer

    Sure, not all animals on an island, but the trend is not great. https://www.vox.com/energy-and-environment/2019/12/9/20993619/biodiversity-crisis-extinction

    How Old Was that Animal?

    From Matson's website: Does Region Of Harvest Impact Aging? Widespread wildlife species, such as white-tailed deer and black bears, can be aged across their ranges. However, within the northern hemisphere, northern populations are generally easier to age than southern populations. Animals from...

    Interesting Prompt For Discussion - Deer Butchering in Public

    Since he quoted you, I figured you... But I've been wrong before.

    Are we haggling over the wrong things?

    Here's one example of all life. Two types of worms outweigh humans. Another representation is at the following link, some pretty interesting numbers here: https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2021/08/total-biomass-weight-species-earth

    Are we haggling over the wrong things?

    Speaking with some more experienced folks at work, it seems like they have optimism that humanity will turn this around. I don't know if is due in any part to the reforms they lived through in the 1960/70's with the passing of legislation including the EPA, ESA, NEPA, Clean Air Act...

    To protect eagles, hunters and conservationists rebuild old alliances (non-lead ammo)

    Really hesitate to comment here but, oh well. So someone mentioned lead is a carcinogen, but lets not downplay it's negative effects and pretend lead isn't harmful. Lead is a neurotoxin which has pronounced impacts on younger people. There is no potential, just is toxic. I'm guessing you...

    Gustafson vs Brown Montana

    As was I. Probably the single most important statewide race. As you hoped for earlier, I guess Montanan's saw through him.

    Gustafson vs Brown Montana

    James Brown conceded the race for a seat on the Montana Supreme Court to incumbent Justice Ingrid Gustafson on Wednesday morning. Brown issued this statement at about 8:20 a.m.: “We fell short after a hard-fought campaign where we were significantly outspent by special interest groups and saw...

    Gustafson vs Brown Montana

    Ugh, Elsie. It is extremely frustrating that she is in charge of education. She doesn't seem capable of forming a cogent thought on her own.

    Prescribed Burn Arrest

    I'd rather try to talk about things here than watch some rookie get cornered at a gas station in the middle of nowhere because someone's grandpappy couldn't cut some trees in the early 90's.

    Prescribed Burn Arrest

    Yes, that is pretty much what I'm saying. 🤷‍♂️ edit to clarify. My remedy for those issues would be to fully fund the FS. Generally not what people complaining about govt spending want to hear and doesn't continue any dialogue. Either way, I think everyone can agree Congress sucks!
