    Californians build house in GNP. FCD demands halt and removal.

    Excerpt from article: The board determined the stream bank had been excavated in violation of the 310 law. In addition to ordering the removal of the home, the board also required the Amblers to obtain a 310 permit — the permit that’s necessary to do any sort of work near a stream in Montana —...

    That is an impressive resume, to be admired and applauded. 'Still uncertain of expertise with regard to topic(s). For me, two college degrees (BS, MS), US Army War College graduate ...

    FILM act

    There's nothing more interesting to hang on the wall above the fireplace up at the Yellowstone Club than a trophy accompanied by an interesting video of the monster feeding in natural habitat prior to the kill. It's a view-worthy video trophy to show in the home theatre in the basement just...

    Fixing social security

    I understand and feel pretty sure you could advise me competently well regarding assett management and investing wisely.

    Fixing social security

    Yes, but obviously people don't fully understand personal debt versus national debt, role and complexity of "government", nor economics at a micro or macro level. This thread is replete with the absurdity of silly obviousness. Let's get back to hunting, public lands, public access, wildlife...

    Alaskan Bear vs MT/WY Bear

    If you get out of your car and hike far enough to no longer hear the Harleys, then you will see bear tracks. But if practicing bear-aware precautions, you won't see the bears.

    Mobile hunting camp

    As a driver of pickup with slide-in camper, I can confirm it won't take long and it's second nature to use side mirrors. Just ensure adjustment provides optimum rear visibility.

    Crazy Mountains Public Access & FS Management Lawsuit Filed Today

    It causes one to be reluctant to voice an opinion on this important access and public land issue in that it may disappoint others not in agreement. 'Big difference between disagreement and disappointment. Of all invested in many ways, RobG, moreso than most, is one who has paid for, suffered...

    Elky, your explanation was helpful. The derogatory personal comment was not.

    Observations

    Agreed ... and especially with oversized fat tires, jacked up, spewing loud exhaust and desecrating the American Flag by flying it in inclement weather and unlit at night! Full disclosure: My hunting, camping, touring rig is a 2005 Dodge 3500 Laramie full size pickup with a Cummins.

    Fixing social security

    As I look around it is distinctly the perspective. I have very little influence on the behavior or the reward. But more generally, it's the intent to assist those who can't save for old age because they are living from paycheck to paycheck just to afford the basics. But BHR, you already know...

    Fixing social security

    That is the logical and wise answer. HOWEVER, not the "American way" since nothing down, no interest for a year puts middle income folks in new vehicles, new boats, new campers, annual vacations to exotic places, new rifles, new clothes, and on and on with monthly payments ... leaving no "extra...
