    HB0060 - Excess Wildlife Population Damage - Not sure on this one

    Lets be realistic. Most ranchers don't want fewer elk, they want more money from elk being there. Preferably as a handout. This will pass easily. It's like asking the politicians to not give themselves a handout...

    Who’s Fault question

    Obviously it's your fault. Also, if something good happens it's obviously because of her. No details necessary. Circumstances don't matter. Just move along and remain happy.

    State Land in Jackson, WY headed for auction

    A well known real estate tactic to convince a neighbor to pay more for land than they should is to threaten an auction that would bring in an undesirable entity. Probably what the land board is trying to do to the feds. If the state actually sells they'll piss the money away quickly and have...

    Wyoming Corner Crossing Defense Fund

    Great outcome! So glad to see a bullying landowner put in his place when trying to claim something that wasn't his.

    Car Insurance Rates

    It's wise to shop your insurance needs around every couple of years. We rarely change insurers, but it sure helps to negotiate a better rate when they constantly are wanting more.

    HB 677

    I'm not sure Utah still has the worst politicians anymore in terms of public lands. Montana is sure trying to claim first place it seems.

    Opinions on Washington

    If outdoor opportunity is really important to you look to Eastern Washington. Plenty of public land access from either Spokane or Wenatchee offering a multitude of fishing, hunting and camping opportunities. If I were you it would be a simple decision to choose Spokane and commute to work from...

    Pac Boots: Schnee's vs Kenetrek

    I bought Schnees years ago before they jacked the prices up. Will have mine rebuilt because that is still a good value with Schnees. The Hoffmans I have had were of similar quality and are what I would buy today if looking for a new boot. At least 50 to 75 bucks less than the Schnees...

    IL Boys Headed West - Advice Appreciated

    I would hike the 2 miles each day and camp at the truck. Probably fits your experience and equipment better and keeps you mobile in case the elk aren't there. Forget what you know about whitetail hunting because most of it is not applicable. If you don't see fresh sign or elk move to a...

    Idaho Senate Bill 1065 requires sale of state land

    Looks like an attempt to get the state to sell some land. Probably being done in case the transfer of federal land happens someday.

    Congressman Amodei - (R) Nevada - Response to my Email - Call for Action for Nevadans

    Nevada did a wonderful job of selling off the first 2 million acres they were given.

    Letter from Senator Mike Crapo on Selling My Public Lands

    Another well written political response. Depending on what a person wants to hear it could be interpreted that way. He leaves the door open to a transfer to the state as long as they "promise" not to sell it later on. Given Idaho's track record of having already sold 41 percent of their state...

    Some suggested political topics

    It is not wasted time if you think he already agrees with your stance. Reinforce it and make sure he knows you appreciate his support to your cause. Don't let up on him because as you are pulling him one way someone else is trying to pull him in other directions.

    Letter from Senator Mike Crapo on Selling My Public Lands

    Typical and well written political response from Crapo. Sort of agree with the persons concern, try to placate them, dance around the issue and commit to nothing. Labrador's response, if you get one, will be much different. He is more direct and just simply states that it should be sold.

    Montana Public Lands Rally

    Perfect. Now lets march into the other 49 capitol buildings and do the same.

    WSJ does a piece on long-range hunting

    I agree. It seems the essence of hunting is lost on some people.
