    Stage 3 declared public land closed!!

    The USFS around here closed the entire San Juan national forest... So no hunting and fishing or use of public lands... I was told by folks in the know that the stage 3 ban (s) will likely start to move north and east. Think Swatch range, Sangres, Gunnison range, and Collegiate peaks will be...

    Last fights of 2017

    Went out earlier today and got some footage of where a hot doe has to be. There were 12+ bucks in the area and it is amazing how many the one wide guy fought off. Also interesting how nice he was to that spike who wanted to spar... A couple of the bigger bucks never even got up. All the...

    Scouting 2017

    Well it is that time again and pry my favorite time of the year to get out in the high country. Due to the extremely deep snow pack this year I have had to wait a bit as a lot of the high basins have been snowed in and most if not all of the passes still have snow on them. Hot dry weather the...
