    Lithium

    I talked to a would be western hunter one year as he was scouting on paper maps and Google Earth. He figured that every blue line on the map was water and that he would have zero problems finding animals as long as he stuck to the streams along with not needing to bring any extra water with him...

    Lithium

    Anymore trying to purchase the mineral rights with the land is next to impossible. Water rights on the other hand can be purchased at very high prices here in the west. I remember on another forum where a member purchased 40 acres in Wyoming with a nice stream running through it. He had...

    Lithium

    I look at all the mines and mining rights that my dad and his partners owned only to let them go back to the government. The last time that I was at a mine site that he and his partners had in Nevada I saw that they were looking for the wrong thing, instead of gold and silver they should of...

    2023 Utah Draw Happening

    They threw a curveball this year. Instead of charging cards and then sending emails they are sending the emails first.

    Dumbell exercises

    I look at about 6 80 lb bags of concrete that I have sitting in my garage that need to be moved and figure that I'll so it sometime but not now. Sooner or later I'll need to use a couple and I'll do it then.(y)

    It's May, but feels like August!

    I just saw a report that shows that Lake Powell is raising about a foot a day. That's a lot of water flowing into that pond.

    FL tag app time

    If a old girlfriend who lives down there hadn't gotten married I might think of trying my luck down there in the sunshine state. Good luck on the draws.

    It's May, but feels like August!

    I'll be down that way come this Wednesday. My sister is going to be over and she wants to take a trip to Silverton. She came up 550 years ago in a snowstorm and she said that all she could see was snow and a glimpse of the hillside across the road every now and then. It looks like it is going...

    It's May, but feels like August!

    It's rained enough in my area that I haven't had to run the sprinklers yet this year, they are ready but that is all. It looks like we are now in for a dry spell. No rain is forested for the next week. I have been able to get out and take care of a few weeds but I only have 1/2 a acre to...

    That's the biggest problem with getting older, all your friends age likewise. My condolences to you about your friend, I've had to give a couple of eulogies in the last few years and it is one job that I wouldn't wish on anyone.

    2023 draw

    I realized many years ago that hunting in other states is not for those who want to save money over just buying beef or pork. One friend questioned me about the amount of meat that I get off of a javelina vs what it cost for the tag and to travel the 2000 miles round trip. I just told him...

    Michigan Man Fined False WY Residency Claim

    We used to have folks that had a second home here in the Vail area who would try and get a resident big game permit by using their Colorado home address and a utility bill. Some actually accomplished it. Then the old Colorado DWR chomped down hard on the retailers who were selling the permits...

    2023 draw

    The last one that I got a number of years ago was around $1600 cut and wrapped. Now I believe that it is on the other side of $2000
