Duh! Just wait until you've ticked-off 3/4 of century though. You might find armchair exploring and vicarious adventuring through reading other's hunt reports and watching wilderness videos much more appealing than they seem today.
I spent Monday night, 27 January, sleeping on the front seat of...
Your posting revives a half-century-old memory, which you might find interesting. It is one that reminds me of what a tedious task it was to produce such physical terrain models back when I was old enough to be drafted but could be arrested for buying a beer.
However, before I describe a...
Can't say that I've been doing particularly well; but, I'm still not planted, roasted, or converted to predator or scavenger scat!
I will shoot you a PM when I can muster the energy.
In the meantime, if you don't mind sending me same with some updates on how you and your buddies have done over...

Did you drop a digit in that number? An age of 19,000 years would make sense for a Pleistocene era horse in North America.
Or, are you contending that the femur supports theory that Amerindians spread horses across the North American continent long before contact with Europeans...
Just goes to show that more than a handful of lovers of wild country and challenging pursuits still exist! Personally, I think that deleting this thread does them a disservice!
Have any HuntTalk participants in this cat joke thread bothered themselves to ask Shawn S his opinion? If anyone is...
I remember how that misadventure rattled kad11--was happy to see him get back on the horse.
I'm still rooting hard for several who have hunted dilligently to take their first ram! Never met one of you in person, but consider most of the regulars here to be my friends, even that one guy who...
