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 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.

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...

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...

What unit? I know a number of them fairly well if you need any help.

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

Funny how things change as you age. I've got a few tags that I'll chase until they throw dirt in my face but most of them I just put in for the ones that I know that I'll draw, but even those are getting harder to draw. That's the big problem when you have the number of hunters who want to...

As I found out you can take care of those weak links, if you want to spend the money. 2 titanium alloyed axles ran around $500 30 years ago, I can just imagine what they cost now. The brake drums and rotars are a little cheaper.

I learned that when you improve one part the next failure will be down the line somewhere. I built performance 1600 class VW engines. Then I learned how to beef up the transaxle, the next thing in line were the axles and rear brake drums. To improve the axles would of cost too much but I had a...

Personally I would stay away from a muzzle brake, they are just plain and simple not fun to be around unless you have hearing protection on. If you have a 300 Win mag has she shot it? Instead of a 300 magnum how about a good old 30-06 or a 270 or even a 7mm Rem mag? As long as the range is...

I know that years ago I would just purchase a box of ammo to shoot. If it wasn't the best shooting I didn't worry about it but it usually shot well enough to actually go hunting with. I have seen quite a few questions and threads on other forums asking when it was that we needed MOI ammo for...

I think that they would want to work out a trade but what does Colorado have that any of the other states might want. But then CP&W's pockets are real deep so they just may buy some wolves somewhere. I looked at the final plan on the first area that they plan on releasing the wolves and I'm...

Since I am a reloader I have always hoped for 1/4 lb sample cans of powder, but it'll never happen. The only loaded rifle rounds that I have ever seen in a 5 pack have been the very large bore cartridges, and most of them come in a 10 pack. I don't think that it would be very economical...

But yet they still don't know where they are going to get the wolves from. I can see other states balking at letting Colorado come in and trap wolves from their states since that would or could adversely affect their reintroduction and or plans on hunting wolves. But then there is always...

Can't help you but I suggest that you jump over to the New Member Introduction forum and introduce yourself. https://forum.eastmans.com/forums/new-members-introduction.46/ This won't gain you any points for a response here but others may be more willing to help rather than helping someone...

End of May to the first week of June. I saw it posted somewhere but didn't go looking for it.
