Beautiful Places in the Western US You’ve Hunted

[Wildabeest]

I would say that nowhere I have hunted in the West failed to be beautiful....

^^^^^^^^
What he said!

Not that these are any more scenic than anywhere else out west, but these are from my hunting spot in southwest MT...


And these from my spot in UT...

Everywhere I've been in the Rocky Mountains has been easy on the eyes. While going thru a photo album several days ago, I scanned some of them to my laptop.

These are north of the border, tight to the Yukon line, back in the day.

As much as I enjoy being in the mountains, the great plains have their own beauty to my eye.

The lower Flathead in December reflecting the Mission Mtns has always been one of my favorites.
There aren't many places in the west that aren't beautiful without people.

Hard not to find beautiful places

And the Brooks Range was worth every effort and every penny:

The Grand Mesa.

As a kid in the '50s and '60s, every other summer my Grandfather and Grandmother would take me fishing up on Grand Mesa. We'd drive over from Denver and each trip he would drive by the ranch in Cedaredge where he worked when he was a young man, then we would go up to Island Lake Lodge and stay a week in the same cabin that they spent their honeymoon in. My Grandmother would stay in and clean the cabin, and my Grandfather and I would go out in a row boat on Island Lake and catch a mess of trout for dinner.

On each trip we would take a day and walk in to Butts Lake and unsuccessfully try to catch the monster trout that were always there cruising the shoreline. Great childhood memories...

Somewhere in Idaho.

I have been told, in a rather rude manner, that two of my choices are not in the western U.S. and one is not a hunting trip. Sorry about that.

Grand Mesa and White Mtn's are apparently acceptable.

But, if the opportunity arises I still recommend spending time in the Brooks Range and Mackenzie Mtns. And the Grand Canyon is not chopped liver

All the best to everyone on this Glorious Easter Sunday. I wish I was with Guy in the Brooks Range----right now! That was such a great trip for you Guy, and a successful hunting trip as well.
