Colorado gun ban
I think the main problem here is that legislators and the younger American public at large - don't respect the U.S. Constitution to begin with. For them - the 2-nd Amendment IS the problem, they are trying to "solve". Why? Because they didn't study history, and are oblivious to the fact that... -

So do surgeons and LEOs. Yet those are the people entrusted to take the greatest responsibility when it counts. Coming from Los Angeles, with CA gun law doubled by local city and L.A. County law - several times a month I'd hear gunshots out of my bedroom window, and have heard a radio call for... -

Most of it. Before even bothering to find hard numbers to disprove those of these claims which do appeal to any numbers or statistics - most claims are unprovable and are basically just "feelings". -

Well you've nailed it quite precisely - these people believe the original Bill of Rights is an outdated document which is detrimental to the modern "civilized" society, and should be replaced with... some "more progressive" Bill of Rights. -

First World Problem - Would You Buy Land Right Now??
+100 to that! If you've made it to being able to afford that land - in terms of finances you probably know what you're doing better than most who claim to be a "professional real estate agent" :-D- Shodan

First World Problem - Would You Buy Land Right Now??
But the "Covid run" started a bit before covid, and it's lasting trend: covid's over, yet the rich nerds who fled Silicon Valley and Los Angeles, perhaps to places like the one you're looking to buy (or just to renting in nearby mountain towns) - aren't eager to come back to the overpriced...- Shodan

First World Problem - Would You Buy Land Right Now??
As others have said - land prices don't go down in the long term. Ones near an overheated city might - if the city pulls a Detroit, or 90% of the workforce goes full-time remote within a single year. So local housing looses it's main appeal and thus value. But land in the mountains, with...- Shodan

Turkey hunting this Fall? I know a place where there's a lot of 'em, about an hour drive from Denver. Seen many Rabbits there, too. -

That's pretty cool! Hope he makes a nice cat trophy :-) I've never even seen one of those IRL, heh... -

Welcome to Idaho elk camp (semi-live)
What's this? You were hunting elk but this Cougar found you instead? A shame, but if I saw one coming at me during the day I'd put it down too... although I thought they are mostly a threat at night? -

Hi! Mostly turkey for upland birds. And any waterfowl, too. I just don't take hens with little 'ones, on foot or on water. Would you like to go on a joint hunting trip some time this Fall?- Shodan

Water - How Much?
A gallon per day - at a very optimistic minimum. Maybe OK for winter time or for ambush hunting when you're sitting on a tree stand or in a blind and it's chill outside. But when it's 80, 90+ degrees out and I'm actively hiking (with or without a rifle on my back), up and down hills, and...- Shodan

Good points about being a young hunter in terms of not having experience, but being treated as an adult. As for places to go hunting - well, it seems to me that because public good hunting places are so hard to find, to the point that information about such places is valuable intel. And it's...
