    Wyoming Pronghorn 2026

    Just finished up a pronghorn hunt with my Dad, Brother, and nephew. Was a lot of fun and we all got pronghorn. Dad still does pretty well for being 81. Nephews first pronghorn: Found this buck the day before yesterday, gave us the slip a couple times. He ran out of luck yesterday:

    RMEF opines on Roadless Rule and USFS Travel Management proposals, impotently.

    We dont need more roads, obviously all of your needs are being met with what already exists.

    RMEF opines on Roadless Rule and USFS Travel Management proposals, impotently.

    I see very few if any benefits to roads other than capitalist ambition when it comes to punching new roads into what little we have left that isn't roaded to hell and gone already. Lets just consider what isn't being maintained now in regard to roads. Between roads and bridges, close to 7...

    RMEF opines on Roadless Rule and USFS Travel Management proposals, impotently.

    Right, but roads running through the selkirks did eliminate caribou in the lower 48. Roads have silted salmon, steelhead, cutthroat, bull trout streams and eliminated untold miles of spawning habitat. Roads have created a massive problem with weeds, water quality, increased human caused ignition...

    RMEF opines on Roadless Rule and USFS Travel Management proposals, impotently.

    We don't need more roads. Everytime another road goes in that "may" solve one problem, it creates a bunch of others. FACT. I have the luxury of not being forced to guess, that comes with working in the woods for 39 years and spending a significant amount of my free time in the woods as well. I...

    RMEF opines on Roadless Rule and USFS Travel Management proposals, impotently.

    Great let's make another compromise...bad enough we've done it 4 times already which leaves us with 6 1/4% of what we started with. FFS, is it EVER going to be enough when it comes to roads?

    Tell me how a road makes these things better for anything: Show your work.

    RMEF opines on Roadless Rule and USFS Travel Management proposals, impotently.

    Here's some fun facts about all the "good" roads do...and yet an organization that claims conservation is important wants more roads? Not buying what they're selling. A. Direct loss of habitat (see Forman et al. 2003): • 3.9 million miles of roads in the U.S. • 2.3 million miles are paved. •...

    RMEF opines on Roadless Rule and USFS Travel Management proposals, impotently.

    The RMEF has always left me scratching my head. At times, I really like what they do, other times it's WTF? Not much different than any other organization for sure, all of them do that. That said, this waffling and contradictory messaging definitely leaves me scratching my head on the roadless...

    Gas/Fuel Price and hunting plans

    That's a great question, I'm glad I'm not a boomer but I would think almost anything would beat folgers. That stuff is brutal.

    Gas/Fuel Price and hunting plans

    Lodging and cooking, I'm cool with, but dude...the folgers is just too extreme. Nobody is THAT broke.

    Gas/Fuel Price and hunting plans

    Definitely not going to be changing any hunting plans, but will camp perhaps a bit more than normal. Won't be doing as many day trips, that's for sure. I'm telling myself it's the fuel prices why I plan on extended trips, but really, it's more to do with having about 12 days left to work for...

    Wildfire management LTTE

    Here's the problem you forget about the "serial litigators"...often times it's the local people in the area that you're trying to protect with fuel reductions that are pissing and moaning about what the FS is proposing. They don't like changes to "their forest" that's in their back yards. They...

    Wildfire management LTTE

    Don't break your leg jumping to imaginary conclusions. To recap, since you're having trouble following along. 1. You can't compel private landowners to mitigate fire risk, that is unless you want to trash private property rights. 2. Even if mitigation steps have been taken, they may, or may...

    Wildfire management LTTE

    Sometimes, but conditions matter and so does climate change. Things that worked in the past may not work in todays climate conditions.

    Wildfire management LTTE

    That's always been the case, but you can't force a private landowner to do fuel reduction work.

    Pronghorn age?

    No question 4+, and if I had to guess I would say 5 or 6. Which is about when a vast majority of pronghorn in Wyoming have their maximum horn growth. Oldest buck I've had lab aged was 8.
