    2022 CO Muzzy Hunt

    Day 6-8: Time for some R&R. With three days left before our return flight we stopped at a campground on our way back to my brother’s place. We hung my tarp over the picnic table and got to work de-boning and repacking into 2.5-gallon bags for the return flight. You get some looks deboning meat...

    2022 CO Muzzy Hunt

    Thanks for all the replies. Sounds like I need to be more patient with my glassing. Once the sun was up and hot we called it. Will be thinking about a glassing tarp to keep going with some shade.

    2022 CO Muzzy Hunt

    Day 5 We woke up to no animal issues and the best I’d felt in a morning since arriving in CO, the only thing we need is some big old buck to glass up and stalk in on. Hiking to our glassing spot I was feeling better and better with every step. Still not sure how altitude sickness works, but it...

    Checks out for black bear country. We never came across much fresh sign either. Your comments on campgrounds makes sense. What would you change if brown bears were around?

    2022 CO Muzzy Hunt

    Day 4 Up in the darkness and feeling shitty we hiked up to the glassing spot. It was a slow morning without a deer sighting until 8:30. It was a big body deer whose antlers forgot they were supposed to fork a second time. We occasionally glassed back at him every now and again while we...

    2022 CO Muzzy Hunt

    Day 3 Well rested and fed we hit the road hoping that the road in to the e-scouted spot would be driveable. Fortunately, it was, and we were able to get all the way to our planned access site. Feeling better but still not 100% we nervously began our hike in to set up camp. A mile or so and...

    2022 CO Muzzy Hunt

    Day 2 The night was worse than the hike in. I kept waking up in a cold sweat feeling like I was going to puke. In the morning I still felt like dying so agreed to glass from the tent and let my friend hike over for a better view into the basin. His plan was to hike for a morning view and circle...

    2022 CO Muzzy Hunt

    I enjoy writing these and getting feedback from the more experienced guys on this site. This will be my 6th year traveling west. We missed on our planned WY Antelope tag so only have one western tag. Luckily my friend and I drew a high country CO Muzzleloader mule deer. Still looking for another...

    Dangerous Goods Shipping

    So far everyone I called has said they don't pack for private individuals as it wasn't worth the hassle. One told me "good luck". I think I'm out of time anyway leaving 9/8. Backup Plan is to have my brother in Denver see what is available locally. Looks like my scouting day is becoming...

    Dangerous Goods Shipping

    This looks like my best option. Googled "dangerous goods packing" and got a few places close. Everyone is closed now but will try in the morning. My googlefu was inches from the answer but too many results for "dangerous goods shipping" probably buried the answer. Thanks Willam and everyone who...

    Dangerous Goods Shipping

    Hey guys wondering if anyone know a way to ship dangerous goods without a license? I'm trying to ship some muzzy powder and primers to CO for a hunt Sept 8 and after 3 days of runaround with fedex and ups have gotten no where. Turns out you have to be "on the list". I'm actually surprised there...
