Flying over Gods country. A late evening landing after dropping off hunters in the 40 Mile country in Alaska. Midway lake.

It is silly and even some of the boarder guys just shake their heads. But they always let me take the bear spray.

I usually drive through Canada a couple times per year and so far, they have always allowed me to transport bear spray. But, it has to be bear spray, not mace or pepper spray designed for people. I go thru boarder crossings in Washington and Alaska...British Columbia and Yukon.

I have to go along with the statement of President Trump, that the cure shouldn't be worse than the virus. This whole event is hard to watch/experience. Governors are acting like dictators, imposing their wills over our constitutional rights. We'll get thru this, but we will all be made to...

I agree that plenty of bears get shot for bluffing. But at 5', I would be pulling the trigger too!

A bunch of good eating there! Not too crowded either!

To answer the "which one would I choose" I have to go with either. Obviously, the first shot is the most important thing to me. A good hit on a bear with either a shotgun or a 45-70, with good loads, is going to make it alter it's behavior long enough to put more shots in it, if needed. I shot...

The defense of life or property regulation is more complicated than it seems. It's based on a state-of-mind, not a measured distance. The warden needs to establish that you were in fear for your life, or at least an imminent attack. Also that you didn't cause the issue by being overly stupid...

When I was working, I carried a take-down Marlin converted to .457 Wild West Guns. Very authoritative and reliable. It fit great in the back seat of a Supercub. I checked a lot of kill sites carrying it but never had to actually use it on a bear. That said, I'd be comfortable carrying either...

Rebuilding barbed wire fences. Everybody seems to keep their distance from me, instead of helping beat T-Posts into the ground!

I've applied to hunt deer in Montana this season, mostly because I committed to do so with a friend. I also committed to him that this would be the last time for me to hunt Montana due to the cost. I'm sure Montana won't be disappointed to see me leave, they will sell their tags regardless. But...

I made a quick trip to Jackson to see my son. Stayed in a place that overlooks the elk refuge and WOW, what a bunch of elk. I enjoyed watching them this morning and all the coyotes that were there too. Elk would chase the coyotes when they got too close. I could see one dead elk with coyotes and...

65...the first 21 mostly in Southern California, the last 44 in Alaska.

Thanks Pete. I'm in for Wy. Elk and Montana deer. Fingers crossed. How about you?

I do use manual at times. Right now I have the focus set as a back button, Auto ISO and set my shutter speed where I want it. For the pheasant is was 1/2000. It's fun trying new settings.

I bought a Canon 90d and use either a 100-400 or a 70-200 f2.8. If the photo is poor...it's not my camera's fault!

Thank you so much. I'm trying to get better with my camera.

Nothing there. Alaska hasn't been to good to me in the draws lately!

I have some property in Eastern Oregon that I tend too, in the Spring and Fall.

I watched a couple roosters go full MMA today! Very entertaining. They fought to a draw!
