    Fresh Tracks Weekly - Playing Political Football

    A few days in DC last month reminded me of how much I hate the political football that gets played with public land management. The proposed BLM rule that would give conservation equal standing to other uses under the "Multiple Use" mandates is the subject of this week's episode. Since nobody...

    MTN TOUGH - 50+ Preseason Prep

    Alright, we're about six weeks into filming our nine-week program at MTN TOUGH, where they are using me as the poor talent to build a course for hunters over 50 years old who might have a few impairments that are keeping them from staying in better shape. I went there in December, just to check...

    Solar Energy Comments due April 18, 2024

    One of the largest proposals in a long time is open for public comments. It is the proposal to allow large scale solar development in many wildlife-rich areas of the west. The WyoFile folks do a great job of explaining the possible impacts of such in Wyoming. The same can be said for many of...

    Fresh Tracks Weekly - Reform the EAJA for wildlife

    This is a topic that I've almost had to compartmentalize, given how much it raises my blood pressure. Marcus knows it gets me worked up and he convinced me to sit down and give some thoughts on how the Equal Access to Justice Act is being abused by environmental litigators (drive by litigators...

    Screwing over the Non-resident (or not)?

    Since this forum and my emails are full of people arguing about the difference between resident/non-resident treatment, Marcus and I figured we'd do a quick Fresh Tracks weekly on the topic.

    2023 Arizona Coues hunt

    Those of you who subscribe to Fresh Tracks+ saw this hunt when we put it on that platform last month. It was a lucky draw where I finally drew my "First Choice" on an Arizona deer application. I always talk about swinging for the fences with a first choice and something more reasonable on a...

    Boating & Hunting - Be safe

    Montana - Time to Shake it Up?

    I've always given the default benefit to FWP when it comes to season settings and such. I've relied on the good people within the agency with a lot more knowledge than me to make the final decisions. But over the years, the centralization of power to Helena makes it hard for the Regional folks...
