    Opening The Can Of Worms...Coronavirus...

    Not sure how they do it.. I think they are closing all the trail heads and roadside parking is only if you have a local drivers license or in county plates. https://the-journal.com/articles/171873-san-juan-county-colorado-limits-backcountry-recreation-to-locals

    Opening The Can Of Worms...Coronavirus...

    San Juan county issued a “locals only” policy yesterday on all public land in the county as to protect its EMS workers. Drive through only for everyone else... No skiing, hiking, or snowmachines... I like the policy and expect more counties/sheriffs to follow suit. Sounds like a real good...

    Opening The Can Of Worms...Coronavirus...

    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...

    Weirdest, oddest, creepiest thing you've seen, or heard.

    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...

    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.
