    I fail the bear ID test every time. Is the consensus here that it's a griz?

    Outdoor Life headlines Amendment 83 opposition Anti-hunting group

    Washburn is the most anti-hunting hunter ever. He's the anti's best friend and is always cited as, "Even hunters don't agree with <hunting topic of the day>." Everyone is entitled to their opinion and I'm sure there are hunters who think their specific form/method/species of hunting is the...

    Public Land Trail Cam Etiquette

    Property left on public land should be considered trash and removed by anyone who finds it. You can camp in most places for maximum 2 weeks, but cameras are not camping gear, so unless expressly excepted by some specific forest, I argue they are forfeit.

    FS land transfer

    1. Agree, but "self-inflicted" by the OP sounded more like the USFS decided to spend less and less money and fire half their staff. To me, it's more like Trump/Republican-inflicted. 2. The article alluded to increased fees. Pitkin Co will collect (parking/entrance?) fees to cover costs. The...

    Malnutrition kills pronghorn

    Green River Basin is SW WY, which isn't even in the worst drought-affected area of the state. If we have even an average winter, there is going to be a another huge pronghorn die off (my prediction).

    FS land transfer

    How is Trump's DOGE-thrashing of USFS employees and Repub's plank of land transfer considered "self-inflicted?" The article brings up the concern of "privitization," but it's another government entity taking over management of a very specific tourist hot spot. There is no change in ownership...

    NAPF Crowdfunding Montana Pronghorn Research

    I saw some local historical group auction off pronghorn statues for $100k. I thought, "I like history and all, but holy hell, why can't we get that kind of money for real, actual, living pronghorn?!"

    Wildfire management LTTE

    People keep writing that, but then don't explain what the point actually is. Here's my take: You (and many, if not most, people) don't like smoke from forest fires (mostly because it's annoying and potentially dangerous, especially to people with existing respiratory health issues) and you...

    Wildfire management LTTE

    In my mind it's not so much a money issue as a policy issue. We need more prescribed burning, but 'the public' doesn't want any smoke or any chance of an escape, so it's not done nearly as much as it needs to be. If we spend the money/funding on prescribed fires that we do fighting mega fires...

    You realize prescribed fires also create smoke, right?

    Bull Hill Mine in NE WY on Black Hills National Forest - Anyone Know Anything?

    I just became aware of this proposed mining operation in the Black Hills NF. I know we all use/need minerals, but just want to make sure this is the right place for 132 acres of surface disturbance for at least several decades. Detailed info here...

    Best meat analog for pack training?

    I like the non-food ideas (I don't need to attract anymore mice to my house/garage. Salt seems like a viable option and cheap. I don't have any ground up rubber lying around...or kids, at least not that I can carry on my back.
