    Fresh Tracks Weekly - Point Schemes Disguise Tag Declines

    Selling points allows fwp to sell something that doesn't exist. It allows them to make more money off less game. I believe Point schemes are possibly counter productive by taking away incentive to keep more game on the mountain.

    Any Remington 788 fans here?

    I have had a couple of .223 but I don't remember seeing a .222. I have also had a couple of 30-30s.

    What are you guys paying for gas?

    Naknek AK That is $42.75 for a 5 gallon jug. I was told that it came down 70 cents a gallon a few weeks ago. I think diesel is just over $9 Imagine heating a house with $9 diesel.

    Help! Stuck Dove Tail Sight

    I have it in my head that they go left to right, you can usually tell with minimal pressure.

    Help! Stuck Dove Tail Sight

    Some sights are tapered, you can measure the difference with a micrometer. I would remove it by laying it on sand bags and driving it out. Then try from the other direction.

    Fresh Tracks Weekly - Point Schemes Disguise Tag Declines

    Look at the last 20 years and project it out 20 more. It works because a bunch of entitled old guys enjoy stealing from the next generation. I read the other day that some people would eat shit just so others would have to smell their breath. In other words they think they are winning only...

    Anyone done a lost title vehicle purchase?

    As stated above every state is different. I just got one in MT and it took 3 months but was actually quite simple. MT wants a notarized bill of sale from who you bought it from. I had the lady at the dmv check my paperwork before I sent it in, which included a police inspection/VIN check. It...

    Hunting/Outdoors Mentor Misses

    When I was about 20 I worked with a guy who was about 15 years older than me and had tons of miles in the mountains on horses in the general area that I live. Him and his brother had been there and done that, and I looked up to them. At that time, I had killed several elk and thought I might be...

    Montana Mule Deer Mismanagement

    As for lying on the harvest survey, by the time I get the call I can't remember what the truth even is and have no time to look at my notes if I still have any. It would be nice if the people who are trying to tell the truth actually could.

    MT EQC to determine corner crossing as "illegal"

    All of the landowners around here that aren't leased out and allow some public hunting have so many noses firmly planted in their ass that there isn't room for another if I was so inclined, which I am not. The bad blood between landowners and the public is earned by both parties involved in my...

    Elk refuge CWD

    I know of elk that were tagged on the refuge being killed in the north end of Paradise Valley in MT. I have seen at least twice where early snows forced the elk to migrate north because they were unable to go south. This is documented fact.

    Whatever happened to..?

    What happened to OntarioHunter? Did I miss something? The guy was funny even when he wasn't trying to be.

    Alaska Highway (AlCan) vs. Cassiar Highway

    I would take the Cassiar if I was choosing 1. The Alcan isn't what it used to be, it has changed tremendously since I was first on it in 1980. The little mom and pop gas station/restaurant/motel outfits are pretty much gone. It is all pavement now, I think there was half gravel in 1980.There is...

    Frank Church Wilderness to allow chain saws......

    I agree that funding trail crews is a better option, if that is an option. I am just playing devil's advocate. The slippery slope shit just rings in my ears like the NRA.

    Frank Church Wilderness to allow chain saws......

    I have seen plenty of evidence of chainsaws used for fire fighting well within the ABW. I am curious why this hasn't lead to motorcycles and whatnot.

    Frank Church Wilderness to allow chain saws......

    Of course they did, they also walked 5 miles to school up hill both ways. Seriously though 100 years of fire suppression changed the forest.

    Frank Church Wilderness to allow chain saws......

    Do you have any pictures? I think a lot of people can't imagine what is being discussed here. 100,000 trees in 150 miles is a chore with crosscut saws.

    Frank Church Wilderness to allow chain saws......

    I would bet that many areas in our national forest, especially within Wilderness areas, in no way resembles the time when these trails were built. Especially when taken as a whole. There might be a hundred times as much blowdown in years following a fire than there was in the early 1900s. Labor...

    Frank Church Wilderness to allow chain saws......

    I used to be very much against this but in the last 5 years I have been paying attention and I would say that 90 percent of the trees that I see cut out of the trail in the ABW have been cut with a chainsaw. Trails will sit blown in for several years and then they will be cut out by the public...
