    There's a trilogy by Ivan Doig that begins with English Creek that is some of the best writing I've ever read. Old west homesteading and love and loss type stuff. Doig's personal memoir, This House of Sky, is equally amazing.

    Best Bourbon???

    I'm in for Bourbon and Cookies! Quick question: can anyone tell me why some whiskeys are spelled with an "e" and some aren't? Example: Makers Mark Whisky vs. Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey. Also: Buffalo Trace, Woodford, Elijah Craig

    To keep or not?

    I have an '08 Tacoma with an extended cab (not 4 door), that has a 6 foot bed. I'm 5'10"ish, so I sleep back there quite often. It's a great truck, but I chose to get a 4 cylinder, which is pretty weak, and it also has a pretty soft rear suspension. When I'm heading out to go elk hunting (or...

    Looks like rain is in the forecast. I've got a 14'x17' wall tent that I'd be happy to bring out there. Thoughts?

    Honeymoon elk hunt MT

    KMF makes a great point. I went on a 5 day bowhunt with my wife for our 1 year anniversary. She's not a hunter, but loves backpacking, wildlife and is tough. We stayed in a wall tent and got up early every day (4am) and hunted hard, but were back at the tent by 3 or so to have a couple beers and...

    Handy Skills You Do and Don't Possess

    I built a pretty sharp looking 800 foot ranch fence around my place but it took me 1.5 years. I can tell jokes around a campfire all night - or until someone tells me to shut up. After 5 years of backcountry grizzly research, I might be the best person I know when it comes to hanging food...

    Chico Hot Springs and elk

    My wife and I love going there too. She has a birthday in mid-November and we like to go there so she can soak and get a massage while I hunt Mule Deer. Not sure there's a better (developed) place for a weekend getaway.

    Welcome - I came to Montana after being raised in southern California. Took me 21 years to get here but it was one of the best decisions I've ever made.
