    i hate to be the one to tell you this…but those antlers in the back of your truck didn’t come off of an antelope. 😁😎

    The shootings just won't stop

    This thread and the lack of discretion shown by many towards others is disappointing. Shameful actually, in most cases. I was hopeful there would be a bit more basic decency among this group.

    Flat Landers at Yellowstone don’t ever learn

    Like the problem of gun violence, any effective solution will have many different aspects which will likely offend everyone in some way. This is the rub that impedes progress. Also, oversimplifying the problem to a single aspect of what is happening (ie assault weapons) drives division and...

    Kayaks.... Pedal VS Paddle

    The seat can make a huge difference. Cheaper kayaks typically have very basic (and fixed position) seats. The seat in my hobie outback is fantastic and makes long days easy. Stability also matters. I can stand in mine with no problem. This is not possible in all kayaks. I also prefer a sit...

    Flat Landers at Yellowstone don’t ever learn

    After some consideration of my comments here, maybe I’m just trying to fix stupid…and making excuses for people to not take responsibility for their own actions. I retract my previous statements. Let’s see more examples of stupid people encounters with wild animals. 🤪🤣

    Flat Landers at Yellowstone don’t ever learn

    This is funny. Right after posting this (above) I saw a piece on CBS this morning about a woman with 35 animals living in harmony…in her house. They also showed a loin, a bear and a tiger all living together as “friends”. No discussion of how artificial this behavior is because of the man made...

    Flat Landers at Yellowstone don’t ever learn

    It’s sad really. The general public really is ignorant about wildlife and nature. What many people see on tv where programs personify animals and leave out all the “ugly truth” about how wild animals survive and die leads to gross misunderstandings and ignorance. Unfortunately, these same people...

    Sunday Pic of the Day

    Yep…good idea fairy visits my house regularly. I just finished a paver patio myself. Did it all by hand over 3 days….my ambition got the better of me on that one.

    Sunday Pic of the Day

    That is cool looking. Would make for a good project piece…but harvesting likely isnt legal I’m guessing.

    First ever elk hunt, CO-Unit 67

    Spend some time making your own map of the unit and the areas you plan to hunt. Watch Randy’s digital scouting videos (and others as well) and mark key terrain features and get a sense of elevation changes along your planned entry and exit. I can’t recommend onx maps enough for planning, and...

    Ask Adventure Medical Kits your First Aid questions here

    I’ve been looking to take some more advanced classes for first aid. Really looking for something that could help when handling problems in the field. Im not looking to become a certified paramedic by any means. Aside from basic CPR I’ve not seen anything what was included in my military training...

    Elk Unit 51 New Mexico

    Agree 100%. I was there in Sept last year and the SxS and other ORV’s that came in on the weekend were nuts. Lots of elk and lots of fun. It is easy to get away from that tho, if you are willing to do some walking.

    You Can't Fix Stupid - $87,000,000 California Lion "Crossing"

    This is so interesting to me. This thread is also timely after listening to the second of the series of 5 podcasts that Big Fin sent out today. I‘m sure the podcasts aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, but this thread really captures what was discussed.
