Berry Crop Failure
Went looking last weekend where we typically go in the upper Blackfoot, and though it is a few weeks early, I didn't see much for prospective berries where we usually do. I think that late frost may have done some detriment.- Nameless Range

Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?
Definitely. Once as a public servant I had to return a Yeti Tumbler that was gifted to a team I was on by a contractor because its value was deemed to exceed $50 - it felt silly but was proper to have to decline that gift. Public service not being a rigged or quid pro quo thing is a virtuous...- Nameless Range

Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?
Every morning I read Tyler Cowen's blog, Marginal Revolution. I am not a libertarian, but I do value the philosophy as an anchor to tether one's belief's to - with varying lengths of rope. Anyway, the other day he shared this post. I don't mean to be political, as corruption knows no partisan...- Nameless Range

Daines Senate Seat 2026
One of the real problems with the two party system, aside from the fact that the parties are chiefly just financial machines in disguise, is that it reduces the suite of problems politics might help with, and their solutions, into a false dichotomy. I am an independent. Probably vote...- Nameless Range

Sunday Pic of the Day
The most dark and evil thing to ever happen on the Marias River was the Marias River Massacre 156 years ago. That is until yesterday - when 3 days of beer, moose fajitas smothered in a buddy's homemade hot sauce, and 4 pounds of deet needing excretion by a human body, crossed paths with this...- Nameless Range

2026 Wildfire
I am related by way of marriage to someone who lives in a couple million dollar home on a mountainside surrounded by trees 10ft off the side of the house. Beautiful views. He built a pond and has a generator, and is under the impression that in the event of a wildfire, he will defend his home. I...- Nameless Range

Pooping in the Woods - A question of thresholds
Funny that this rears its ugly head every once and a while. This weekend I am floating a lonely and chronically dewatered river in north-central Montana with the same group of friends I referenced in the OP. Should be a 2 to 3 day float depending on how much dragging of the rafts is involved...- Nameless Range

We do a pirate themed camping trip with a few other families every year called Pirate Island. This was the Father’s Day Breakfast the wenches cooked, and Cap’n GravyGuts (my pirate name) approved deeply.- Nameless Range

Ranching Subsidies ProPublica Article
Yeah, things definitely need to change. I’m not an expert on lease rates, nor monitoring, etc. maybe a creative solution like that would work. Maybe it would have problems. Just honestly, I’m not sure. It’s a hunch that the leases of certain people who are priced out would be consolidated by...- Nameless Range

Ranching Subsidies ProPublica Article
Though if someone didn't live where I do they might find it more compelling, I don't find the argument that public land grazing contributes only 1.6% of the American beef supply, as one powerfully against public land grazing. Maybe it's brought forth as a retort to ranchers saying they are...- Nameless Range

"Non-Corporate" YouTube hunting channels
Man, they all seem to have sponsors - and it is what it is - but in the last few years I have really gotten into watching trapping content (MontanaWolfTrapper, MountainManLarry, others), and though those guys will have a plug here or there, they also seem to be normal people who work for a...- Nameless Range
