My oldest son hit double digits
I was there, and was just behind you guys. I've seen both bands countless times over the past 30 years, and that show definitely didn't disappoint! What a cool experience that was for you guys, to have Fletcher pull you up on stage. Those kids will never forget that!- MTClacka

MT Mountain Goat
After the dust settled, we decided to head back to camp and pack it all up. The last I saw of the goat, he was rolling pretty quickly, and I realized the slope was a lot steeper than I thought. I was thinking he likely rolled quite a ways down, and it would be easier for us to hike our camp...- MTClacka

MT Mountain Goat
Back at camp that night, we tried to come up with a game plan since the next morning was opening day. We decided to go back to the same glassing point and find both goats. If they were in the cliffs, we would basically watch them to see if they work their way out to the top. Killing a goat in...- MTClacka

MT Mountain Goat
The next morning we head up to get closer to the goats and set up camp. I picked up this Argali Absaroka for this hunt, and am super impressed with it. Incredibly light and simple to set up. Once camp is set, we hike another mile or so to a point that overlooks the drainage the 2 goats...- MTClacka

MT Mountain Goat
I decided pretty early on that I would hunt the opener on September 15. I knew waiting would improve the hair situation, but I already had obligations for the end of the month that I really didn't want to have to miss. On top of that, I didn't want to risk the potential of getting weathered...- MTClacka

MT Mountain Goat
I wasn't sure if I was going to post about my goat hunt, but after reading through the other goat thread thought that this place could use some positive vibes. Just to get it out of the way, my tent remained unshanked for the duration of the hunt... I was fortunate to draw a unit in the...- MTClacka

I hunted 73 last year. Everyone else pretty much covered it. Lots of blm to camp on, but very few nice, shady spots. If rain is in the forecast, the roads will be garbage. We went the second week of the season, and surprisingly saw very few camps or hunters given how many tags they give out... -
Looking for a Bozeman Fly Fishing guide
Give Eric Adams at Montana Fly Fishing Guides in Livingston a call. https://www.montanaflyfishingguides.com/ They fish both rivers and have some of the best guides in the area. If you decide to keep heading east and fish the Bighorn, call the Bighorn Angler and ask for me to be your guide. :)- MTClacka

2016 Tacoma Transmission Issues
Good luck, I just signed the papers yesterday selling mine to a dealership in town. Mine was a 2016 TRD Offroad, and had all of the same issues that you'll see on other forums. Had the trans tsb flash done, and it didn't change a thing. I got to the point where I couldn't handle the constant...- MTClacka

Need help picking a new hunting rig.
I would second avoiding a 16 or 17 Tacoma. I just sold my 2016 back to the dealer after dealing with multiple issues in only a year of ownership. Mine was the 4 door TRD Offroad model. You will learn to hate the 6 speed transmission in no time if you decide to go that route. With that said...- MTClacka

Locking Differential?
I feel your pain! I have a 16 TRD Offroad that I'm getting rid of as well for basically everything you described up above. I have used the rear diff lock on a handful of occassions, and can say that it got me out of some situations that I either was or surely would've been stuck in. I'm...- MTClacka

SUV based hunting rigs
Sweet rig! This is exactly what I'm on the hunt for. The 80 seems to be one of the best all around for a hunting/offroad rig.- MTClacka

Big Ones (photos)
Upgraded pronghorn and elk in 2016. 76" and change. 330"ish frame bull, but is missing brows on his right. Makes up for it with the funk factor and 59" spread.- MTClacka

Idaho Steelhead
The Salmon and Clearwater rivers are your best bet. Idaho F&G website usually puts up weekly catch counts, and it's broken down by river section, so not a lot of secrets as to where the fish are. Catching them is another thing though! It took me 3 trips before I landed my first steelhead, but...- MTClacka
