    High Country Hunt

    Maybe try introducing yourself in the FNG section and contribute a bit to the forum before asking publicly for help on a tag. Same story every single spring, great first post 🤣

    Is Rokslide Wrong About Leupolds?

    I've owned 2 Leupys; a 4.5-14 that I thought I snapped in half in a fall during a packout 2 seasons ago, but it miraculously was fine, didn't lose zero, and tracked reliably out to as far as I shot it (650ish)...and a 3-9 that shifted zero 2" on a 4 hr trip to WA in a padded case haha. I no...

    Need advice. Land in Lincoln county MT?

    That right there is the issue. No feasible way to clean up the surrounding terrain, which is why the warning still exists for that specific zone.

    Need advice. Land in Lincoln county MT?

    It's not in Libby proper. It's any time you agitate the ground, trees, pine duff, etc. around the superfund site. Naturally, they couldn't clean everything up and had to stop at some point, the wooded mountains between the mine and Koocanusa aren't somewhere I'd be spending any serious time...

    Vehicles, you can fix?

    Fuel injected Toyota trucks/SUVs from 1990-ish to 2002. Dang near free junkyard donor parts all over and hours of YouTube how-tos. I've worked on my 98 quite a bit, and even when something is over my pay grade it's ridiculously cheap at the shop. Last job I paid a shop for was an oil cooler...

    Need advice. Land in Lincoln county MT?

    The mine itself is easy to find, just type in Libby Vermiculite Mine on Google. The affected area that is loaded with dust is HERE The old site is currently owned by Kootenai Dev. Co.

    Need advice. Land in Lincoln county MT?

    As of last week, the US has an SFR supply shortage of roughly 5M homes. Prices aren't going down, at least not on the level you're alluding to.

    Need advice. Land in Lincoln county MT?

    1) land prices in Lincoln County have actually appreciated at a faster rate than the more populated parts of MT. Still a lower median overall price but the % increase has been higher. I don't see them ever returning to pre'Rona levels, although we're currently in the longest "plateau" of pricing...

    Montana season change proposal

    Hey dude get out of here with your common sense and customized regional solution. Emotion and Bubba myths only! Btw, agree 100% with your recommendation, specifically on the WTs, things are like vermin here and they dramatically influence muley foraging habitats on the winter range here.

    Montana season change proposal

    Habitat and predators fellas. That's it. Giving up opportunity is never the solution, because you don't get those opportunities back. Plenty of mega bucks/bulls get killed every year in MT by the same guys who have always killed mature animals. Arguing about the minutia of buck:doe ratio and...

    Extra wide sleeping bag… am I crazy?

    Just note that wider bags take longer to heat up and aren't as efficient as a properly fitted bag. Definitely a sweet spot between not feeling claustrophobic and having extra space to have to heat

    2024 Turkey Meat Pole

    Lord blessed me with bird #2 last night around 7PM here in Montana. He had a bunch of hens, so I aggressively cut/yelped almost non stop for about 5 min, then went totally silent. He closed the distance from 300 yds and 150 feet below me to right in my lap, it's always so fun when the plan...
