Yep, really depends on the ranger district. I think an area near me technically still has some atv trails closed from a fire 3 years ago. The signage is terrible and the trails are heavily used.
They look like a great head and I’ve been impressed with what a friend of mine has seen with the 2inch. The new dull tip is a little bit of an odd choice to me and something I don’t love the idea of
The lochsa and north fork are badly in need of a burn to clean them out
The selway has burned a bunch in the past decade and has some good ones going now. I suspect the Wye and macgruder fires in there are burning up a bunch of recent windfall
It has to be a great pattern, I just saw a guy on instagram that either gets it for free or gets paid to use it say how well it’s hiding him from elk, maybe even better than subalpine was.
Judging by the footage he had of some super dumb private land bulls I’m guessing you could kill elk where...
If you have any big shops nearby now can be a great time to check there current inventory and see what they might be having a sale on in the next few months when 2025 models come out. My closest shop does an amazing job of over ordering and having lots of bows on steep discount later. Me, my...
I think his Colorado deer are mostly high country and public, but on landowner tags he is getting each year. I just listened to an older Hoyt podcast with him where he has a story of a governors tag holder and posse blowing out a buck he was stalking and then killing it with a rifle. It was a...
Imagine if any of these companies actually produced things themselves instead of outsourcing everything…
The owner has been out hunting a ton and working on personal projects judging by his IG.
I was a kid in camp in the 80’s and early 90’s. The hunting my dad, uncle and grandpa had was world class compared to those same spots today. It wasn’t a matter of if they would see elk but how many they would see. I think my dad still kicks himself some for not passing small bulls because...
Except sadly from the lochsa drainage north. The asbestos forest it seems.
The fires really aren’t anything new. We’ve done a great job stockpiling fuels for decades by putting out every little fire. Plus the massive amount of noxious weeds all over the landscape, many of which have displaced...
I know it’s not one of those but kuiu has its women’s packs on a pretty huge discount right now. My assumption is a redesign of the women’s suspension they use is coming out
I’d guess a couple of the frequent auction tag guys could have paid cash for it, donated it to a conservation group or state/federal agency and made all the money back in write offs
I know of a decent sized property that was for sale multiple times that sheep use heavily, especially for lambing. It could have been bought multiple times over by all these auction tag conservationists but instead has a mini mansion on it, is platted for more development and has at times had...
So it’s slightly less dark than the original “whitetail” pattern they had years ago? Guess a whole new pattern is the best way to move product. When the clothes last for years you have to do something to keep people buying
Talked to someone today whose son has spent the summer in the sun valley area. Sounds like the kid has been absolutely blown away by how rude, pretentious and generally awful most of the people he has had to interact with are.
I’ve got a set. Really great boot for me. Plenty stiff for most of the hunting I do. I bought a set of tibets at the same time and I really only wear the tibets later in the year or for really, really steep stuff. I think they fit narrower than the tibets do also but some of that could also be...
