Let’s be fair - messaging on both sides of the issue were guilty of mis-information (or at a minimum, over-dramatization). But that’s just ‘politics’ in today’s world.
“...The pack is set loose in nature, tracked by phone app, often aided by drones. It’s a long, raucous, and terrorizing attack...
CPW has to comply with the law, as much as many of us disagree with said law(s).
Specifically in this case, section 3:

The really interesting part was only 3 of us are what I'd call 'serious' elk hunters. The guys from WI had only seen elk in WI before, had never set foot in this kind of country. Very admirable effort from them.
Just 1 ram. Technically in a different Elk unit so didn't look that much over...
Taking a cue from @Bluffgruff - this will be mainly just pictures. Since I am not even close to Andy's league as a photographer, I'll add a line or two of text with each one. Probably more, really, since I suck at editing.
Tldr; Two friends had tags in a unit in Southern CO. A group of 8 of us...
I got the below via text a few minutes ago.
Not sure who the ‘Western Heritage Conservation Alloance’ group is - but this kind of messaging is just too dramatic.
There needs to be better messaging than ‘cats are dangerous so we have to protect ourselves from them’
Thus the minor grief you got from Seeth, @Fred Rogers
By posting the details of a 30 point reissue tag on a public forum that is google indexed, that post very possibly put another couple hundred (maybe more) people in competition for those tags with folks that were already going to attempt...
The BUF/NJD games in Prague are actually Regular season games, but the rest of the league gets going next week. Weird, but in general the Global series has been a big hit.
Banff Ave Brewing: has really solid beer, folks are great and the food is good. Fun pool table on the back, my son has a blast playing with the seasonal folks in the winter (The female Aussie/Kiwi ones in particular)
Farm&Fire: inside the Elk+Avenue hotel is great
The Maple Leaf - slight lean...
I blame this thread for creating bad ‘cow karma’
My view yesterday morning … thankfully it was only a one-nighter. Need to remember caution tape and a ladder.
If it’s the one I’m thinking of (this week was the first time I saw it on the list this year), buddy and I both took a shot at it yesterday, too. Drew it last year.
Woke up to this in WY a couple years ago - one standing in the fire pit doing exactly that:
As @belshawelk notes - I got a couple of them moving up the valley and the rest followed.
The abundant hunting and fishing based in Madison likely cost me an extra semester in school :) Note I was being paid to sell gear and guided a little bit for some of those years, but still. So much at your fingertips.
Don't even need to leave the city: Catching smallies off Picnic point or in...
Better be first in line. Their PC's in the offices/retailers can bypass certain security pieces compared to an individual on their device, but if you have to wait for someone else in front of you to transact, it will be too late.
Later in the year when evergreens are 90% of their diet they get a little 'spruce-y' - especially big males in their 2nd or 3rd year.
This time of year (particularly with the boomer berry and grasshopper crops this year), they're almost sweet. I taste-tested a bird-of-the-year on Sunday...
Another good year for bird numbers in CO. Berry crop is insane this year. Every bird's breasts were stained purple and I personally ate about a quart of wild raspberries.
2 of our first 4 points opening morning below. Shooting was rusty.
And PSA for Weatherby auto owners - don't forget to...
I use it when I remember to download it from the cloud :)
But for a good endorsement - I first learned of the app from a small group of friends that are hardcore Kite-surfers. They use it religiously.
Both of them are just reports.
Think of the 'Preview List' as a report of new inventory that is soon to be stocked on a store shelf.
Whereas, the 'Leftover List' is a report of the total CURRENT inventory of every item for sale on every shelf in the store. Most of this inventory has been...
