    Grizz hunting is over

    I read the whole thing, and am genuinely appalled and the utter lack of logic it contains. I feel mostly just speechless right now. The "tone" of the paper really seemed to attack "Service" and sort of caught me off guard. I've never read a legal brief like this before so maybe this is the...

    Sitka clothing help

    That is fantastic info, and just what I was hoping for. And actually it is pretty fitting that you responded Randy, seeing as how it was your podcast with the "mad scientists" at Sitka that had me sold on their product. I was waffling back and forth on the mountain pant vs. the ascent and...

    Sitka clothing help

    I'm hoping to get some advice on purchasing some Sitka gear. I decided this year it was time to buy some decent clothes but hot damn there is a lot of options. I really like what I see from Sitka, and think that is the direction I will go because I don't like the idea of not being able to try...

    Big Timber/ Thick country tactics?

    This is a pretty great thread. I moved out west from Michigans Upper Penninsula, so glassing for animals wasn't a tactic we did much. It was mostly sitting in a blind and waiting for something to happen. Can't say I ever really enjoyed that. It was ok for early morning, but got really boring...

    Another MN transplant to the West

    Small world, I grew up in that area. I will definitely look up the True North book. Guessing the Falls river in L'anse for steelhead?

    Another MN transplant to the West

    What part of Oregon. (Edit:Ignore that, I originally read your post saying that you had escaped the city) I also left the shores of Superior (upper Michigan) for Oregon (Central Oregon). I'm assuming you are from Duluth? Dan

    What would you do?

    I also like the early days in Oregon. I saw more deer this opening day of archery Elk/Mulie, than I did in just about any SEASON back in Michigan.

    Elk Calling Basics

    I just moved to elk country two years ago, so I have only been chasing them for that long. Dreaming of them for much longer though... Anyway, take my advice for what it is worth, that of a new elk hunter. Diaphragm calls are really where it is at. They are cheap, small, hand-free and the...

    Elk hunt's, fires and sleepless nights....

    Joe, I was curious what ODFW did in these circumstances. Specifically with the Wenaha fire. I'm wondering how many did turn in their tags? I wonder if they will report that? You may end up having the unit to yourself. Seriously, best of luck. I had an Ochoco bull only tag last year and had...

    Elk calling question

    I am new to the west and this is only my second year chasing the wily Wapiti, so take my advice for what it is. But last year, I had posted up and was determined to sit in a spot that held lots of elk sign and I had gotten some very nice pics in that same area too, during all hours of the day...

    A new Oregander

    Northern tip of the UP. Beautiful up there, but I just couldn't do any more winters.

    A new Oregander

    Evening everyone. I'm a freshly signed up Oregander. That is a person who has lived the past two years in Oregon, but spent most of the rest of their lives in Michigan. I've dreamed of Elk hunting for many years now, but have had the opportunity to hunt them for the past year. I can't...
