    Public School Woes

    There is a home school component of every education option; private, parochial or public. If parents are not involved the child suffers but the teacher is blamed. Most kids should have the basics by 8th grade. I'm beginning to wonder if high school should be optional just like college. We...

    Be honest about your Wyoming elk app!

    Huh, I guess I'm the only one planning my whole fall around drawing the Super Tag.

    WY 2024 App Booklet is up

    Does anyone else think the Special tag price is just the pig's snout rooting under the fence? Pretty soon he's coming thru and the non-Special tag prices will sky rocket too making the 90/10 transition financially easier for the G&F. I'm glad antlers aren't a priority for me.

    I've found that rust works well.

    Colorado GMu 81 Road & Trail Conditions

    I used to elk hunt (archery) the Adams Fork drainage over a dozen years ago. During those years I saw exactly one other hunter. He had been packed into an established wall tent camp by an outfitter about half way in. (Hunter was pissed because the pack horse did a rollover and smashed his...

    Which might explain why 90 cows were killed with a Type 1 tag. Probably on the last day of the season.

    Looking at the harvest records, most recent being 2021, the success rate doesn't seem to be out of whack from other elk hunt areas in spite of "limited access". Why don't they just issue 500 more cow tags (or 1000, who knows?), Type 4 or 6 or both? 450 for residents 50 for non-residents and...

    You can be sure it would be a cluster no matter who did the choosin'. It would take years to agree on just the selection criteria. Isn't this the reason landowners with elk are leasing to outfitters? Nothing gets hunters, responsible or not, on the ranch faster than $

    Ha! That's about the last time I looked because I had a UW college friend who was hunting there late

    I agree but printing even 1000 more resident tags is not giving them access to the elk, just more opportunity to hunt next to your neighbor. There are walk-in HMAs in 7 that are almost all used by residents but the road conditions come November are unpredictable. There is even a website...

    The landowners seem to hold the power not the outfitters. WGF can plan all they want but the landowners totally control access to the game in an area like 7. I'm guessing the landowners would prefer to work with the outfitters, especially local outfitters, rather than allow x number of unknown...
