    Delta - So This is Really Happening?

    That is a moronic statement. And ironic, as Boise is in the top 5 whitest cities in the US. Google it!

    Delta - So This is Really Happening?

    I trust local hospital directors and MD Directors when they talk about their patient population. That, to me, is going right to the source. Here in Boise, the largest employer in the state, St Luke’s hospital downtown, is transitioning their cardiac observation unit to a Covid unit and they just...

    I found their comparison to losing over a half million people in WWII and now to Covid and the sacrifices our society makes during crisis to be interesting.

    Idaho rifle mule deer prep

    In 2018 it was 20 degrees and snow on Oct 10. 2019 was pretty hot I believe. Last year pouring rain. For a seven day hunt you have to be prepared for anything.

    if you’re headed to Idaho or Montana in September- start your prayers now

    I get your point, but I contend that this only true with habitat over 4,500 feet elevation. My anecdotal evidence is fires under this elevation tend to char the landscape and reduce habitat to mostly noxious weeds with little to no benefit for winter range ungulates.

    Everyone ready for lockdown 2.0?

    I’m not taking either side but it’s amazing to me so many guys here talk about a 99% survival rate, but would never in a million years get together with their closest 100 family and friends and play Russian roulette. I mean 99% survival rate is the same odds that many of the hunts we put in for...

    Idaho unit 39 Early velvet bucks

    Last year we spent lots of time above 8,000 feet, but fell victim to smoke which reduced glassing capability. We wanted the hunt to be like you see online, early season high elevation deer in the large basins, but ultimately the deer just weren’t there.

    Fires in the west

    While sitting in my camp chair at a local mountain lake, a team of helicopters were taking turns dropping their buckets and taking trips to a little lightning start about 10 miles away. I sat there thinking - Bezos, Branson, and Musk are going to outer space and here we are fighting fires with a...

    Getting Tags - Point Creep vs ???

    People should of course should understand that states like Idaho have a completely random draw, but there are 1)waiting periods if you draw, 2) if you apply for moose, sheep, OR goat you can’t apply for Antelope, deer, and elk, and 3) there are certain general tags where you cannot buy the tag...

    Boise area visit

    If you are near downtown Boise, find 8th street and drive north toward the mountains - it turns to dirt a little ways up the foothill but all of the Parking areas should provide a nice loop with a view. If you aren’t downtown Boise, then find a parking spot near the path along the Boise River...

    Texas to finish building the wall !!!

    That must be a mess dealing with all those landowners and figuring out how where they want it along the river banks. I haven’t read up on it to understand how that’s done.
