These videos and key points can’t come fast enough. DOGE and friends are moving at warp speed and I expect the gutting of my natural resource agency to begin in earnest in 2 weeks. The previous probationary dismissals were just the warm up.
The DOI stance was that employees were expected to respond by midnight; perhaps step down guidance varied by agency, region, or office. For me it did not. While it is unclear whether this is ultimately required, any federal employee that cares about the end goal of their job (for me natural...
I’d put my money on the other states. The remaining folks we have are good but recruitment is a problem. At almost every hiring cycling the fisheries division loses top candidates to other states that are able to pay livable wages, among other things.
You need free, timed entry tickets for several of the Smithsonians now, including Air and Space and the Zoo. You can get them online several weeks in advance.
Same... eventually burned the motor on our Kitchen Aid processing an elk and a deer. I was a grad student at the time and tried to make do. Not worth it. We switched to a real grinder (older cabelas 3/4 hp) and the return on investment from just the time savings (exponentially faster than the...

My wife enjoyed the paragraph describing Rinella’s year-round travel schedule for work juxtaposed against the statement that he is currently writing a “book on parenting”!
Maybe it’s titled ‘Do as I say, not as I do… man’?
Reservations at many glacier and fish creek campground are really hard to get. Everything is booked 6 months out within milliseconds of 10AM ET via recreation.gov. We have been trying every morning the last 10 days and finally succeeded.
Regarding kokanee declines in Flathead Lake, see the link for what has become an actual text book example of food web cascades. Likely, it isn't as simple as this simple cause and effect, but it probably isn't too far from it either...

If interested, I purchased these Asolo's from the REI garage sale in size 9.5 wide. They were marked as 'not worn outside' and looked brand new. The length and width felt great in the store, but after a few hikes (<30 miles) I realized they were too short, but the width was great (these...
I have a 7 yr old that is ready to transition from a pvc bow with suction cup arrows to the real deal. Does anyone have a kid's bow (e.g., a genesis) that is gathering dust? I’m in the Bozeman area. Thanks
