They are closing the schools around here. Going to be a long spring break maybe into summer.. All fun and games til the death cycle kicks in. That whole dead people filling up hospitals tends to make folks uneasy.. Always more comfortable saying it is just older folks who die until that is...

I found 2 people that had killed themselves in a tent while I was fishing a hard to access stream between Durango and SIlverton in 1999.. They were dead for over 2 years and left a note and whatnot the tent was still up but the bugs had done their job.. Cant believe no one had fished that...

This winter is a normal winter and unless we get a big storm or 2 in the spring should stay that way but we still have 2 full months of winter left. 2 of the past 4 years have the winters have been very hard (18) extreme (16).. These winters are starting to show in the age class as in 2016...

Sure is fun to see what guys are able to turn up. One of the guys I hunt mule deer around believes you will find the buck you kill next year this year and I have found that to be more than true!

That time of the year again when plans are finalized and wondering who will be in the high country early seasons to chase Muleys this year? My wife will draw a muzzy tag here in Colorado and this will be her first season w a tag in hand. She has always joined me on a couple scouting trips...

Take a look at the feathered friends Helios jacket..

Super cool videos thx! Some stompers in there - shows what hard work and time can accomplish..

All close to home for me this year. Unless I get super lucky in a draw. Wife will draw a muzzy deer tag and that should make the summer a lot of fun my girls are 5 and 8 now so they are old enough to go on some of the summer scouting backpacking trips looking forward to that.. Have to see if...

Shoot what makes ya happy.. With that said and in keeping w the meme thread..

Here is the rest of the story... A local guy got him the buck actually changed units due to scouting pressure the night before the season. Several groups of hunters knew about him he lived right on a road... One group of nr hunters figured they would have the basin to themselves lol - when...

Well not the best pics of this guy as I take almost all video these days so had to use screenshots. This guy is what to look for in a 200” class buck in the 3 rd week of July... He ended up on the cover of eastmans backcountry edition a couple year ago scored a bit above 210” if I remember right.

Here is another buck and this guy is a good example for what to look for in the 3 rd week of July. So what class is this buck?

I can speak for the central part of Colorado and here we are right at normal snowpack. Has not been super hard on the critters so far. Been real cold for the past month or so. Something to think about is that places in the Gunnison basin have seen 2 of the past 3 winters that were way above...

Class is not that obvious and folks have their opinion that is half the fun. Some guys sandbag bucks others over estimate them.. Remember that 5-10” in total score can be the difference of 1/2”’ to 1” on all the points.. Or a typical w eye guards is a 10 pointer to our fair friends to the...

Well I would put him in the low 160's but when talking class I put him in the 30"er class lol.. Or he is a 30" class buck and for some that will trump score any day! Old fella he is and it will be interesting to see if he returns next year. Also here is another one bigger this time. He was...

Muzzy hunters don’t bother me too much but now high country rifle hunters for mule deer is a different story.... In 2022 here in Co - archery guys will have 4 days to hunt before shells are getting hucked 1000 yds across basins. Very unsafe for the archers w the actions I have seen out of...

Kinda funny story but why I thought I f this buck was because about a month ago i waked out of my brothers house and there eating on one of his apple trees was this guy. I said “hey I know you” lol we were about 40 yds from each other - he looked and walked leisurely away. Right about 25 miles...

Here are 2 more screenshots from the same day.

Ok Scott here is another much harder buck to put in a class... I have a video of this buck I will add. He is over 30” wide easy and still alive. So what “class” is this guy?

The CPW has identified several units in the SW part of the state that will most likely become limited next year or in 2020. From who I talk with this change at this point is almost a sure thing = just waiting for the vote of the commissioners to approve the change. Needless to say for most this...
