    Attractions in Wyoming/SD

    https://www.cam-plex.com/events. It looked like a barrel racing event the 10th of October in Gillette if that was any interest. The county fairs and those kinds of things are kindof done with. The hockey team looked like it was out of town until the 18th of October. If its nice weather, there...

    Wts- Remington 700 vssf .308

    Just trying to put this back at the top to suck up to a LEO in the next county over. If it wasn’t for those stupid hail storms going through my deductible that would have been a cool rifle for me.

    Good places to eat in Gillette .....

    Oh that's cool. I drive Highway 50 fairly regularly and haven't seen that. I am too busy trying not to run into a water truck I guess. I will have to check that out.

    Archery Antelope, Unit # Wyoming.

    I agree with the above. This year even the seasonal creeks still have some water in them, but like you said there are stock ponds scattered all over. I think on the habitat part of the map, the antelope do migrate a little in that area. They do have a winter, summer, and kindof transitional...

    Good places to eat in Gillette .....

    Breakfast I would say the Main Bagel, maybe get some for the road. The Railyard and Rib and Chop I think are two of the steak houses. I like the Las Margaritas for Mexican, there are also two Japanese steak house deals. It seems like when my wife makes plans to go somewhere in the big city, I...

    Man Made Climate Change

    There are some really good points here I think, also through the whole topic. I couldn't resist the temptation to point out (probably incorrectly, that is my style) that the data and statistics look suspiciously like Wikipedia or a government web-site. Neither of those are credible. The best...

    Man Made Climate Change

    I just wanted to kindof emphasize what has already been said about being careful about sources. I am glad wllm1313 evaluated the study cited. A blog from a hedge fund probably isn't the best source. Once people pick a side, its hard for people to look at things objectively, sometimes even...

    Carolina Griswald comes to SD and WY? What else to visit???

    Thanks for those suggestions. I am only about two hours away and haven't been to any of those places except Devils Tower I guess.

    Carolina Griswald comes to SD and WY? What else to visit???

    There are some great routes listed already. Its Rendevous weekend in Pinedale next weekend (7/11) I think. That is crowded, but also pretty cool. I am not sure I would take a Griswold style station wagon on this road, but I want to take the Hyattville to the Mountains down to Red Grade Road...

    camping advice wanted - Wind River Range area Wyoming

    I agree with the above stuff. 2rocky was pretty right on I think. You should at least drive up to Green River Lakes even if you stay somewhere else. There are quite a few other lakes in the area. I like Willow, Half Moon, and Boulder Lake also, especially with a little boat deal. You might...

    Things dogs do for their owners!

    Or eat it, the gross animals. That poor Chihuahua didn't stand a chance with that hog dog. The rabbit in the house would have been a sight, holy cow. I have to help our little corgi/border collie/something else dog into the back of the truck. One day she had killed a field mouse, ate it in...

    Greybull, Wy

    There are some dinosaur footprints and some old digs on the way towards Shell. The BLM around there also has some fossil sea creature things just laying out in the sun sometimes. You can float the Big Horn River in an inner tube through that stretch if its hot, too. It can take a couple hours...

    Sleeeeeep!

    Just wondering if you have tried melatonin supplement deals. Probably won’t help the serious cases but it can knock me out and help get back into the regular sleep pattern when I get thrown off. I Dont have a good grasp on winter but I do enjoy nighttime walking especially dark nights under...

    Mountain Lion - Elk Area 129?

    I have only seen fresh tracks in the bighorns and black hills. There are some outfitters in both areas, so there must be enough around. The county predator control guy probably has better info. I am sure they are around that 129 elk area, but they are super sneaky. Some of that area you were...

    Beetle Kill

    There seems to be a wide variety of knowledgeable and people in the know about how areas are managed on here, so instead of actually asking a forestry manager in the area I am putting a question up here. I had a chance to drive over Togwotee Pass and Dubois, WY last weekend. The beetle kill...
