House Bill 1321 was passed out of committee to the full House which would raise fees for hunting, fishing and state parks entrance. The license for fishing could be raised from $25 to $37.50, small game hunting to $30, deer to $45 & elk to $67.50. The bill would also eliminate free senior...

Need a little advice from some of you computer experts. I have a Garmin 650 Oregon with a Colorado chip. Out in the field I sometimes have a problem with the small screen...too much sun, no reading glasses, etc. At home I interface it with my home computer. I have downloaded Garmin's Base Camp...

I saw a review on this product several weeks ago and also received an Eastmans review today. It looks really great for functionality. The only problem other than being a little "spendy" is the weight. It weighs 1.5# for the ground model. Man that is heavy. Anybody tried one?

Just bought an incredible TC butt stock and now looking for a forend. I know its a longshot, but you never know. Already looked on ebay and Gunbroker.

I have a Garmin Oregon 600 that is great. I also have a couple of the state landowner chips for it. Lots of the time I need my reading glasses to really get a good view of the info. I am thinking about getting a tablet to transfer data into from the gps so I can see the data from a larger...

Unusual colors this evening, lots of pink clouds reflecting of the snow and mountains. Taken from a neighbors deck.

For those of you hunting in SW Colorado, looks like rain and snow for opening weekend. In the 4 corners area rain ant lower elevations & snow in the mts starting Thursday. Be prepared for muddy roads, bring your chains. Stay warm, dry and good luck!@

I have been hunting antelope for 40 years and this year was the first time I have ever hunted them during the rut. It was difficult to say the least. Usually hunt in mid to late September before the rut starts. This year here in southern Colorado the rut was full on the 1st of October. The...

After my antelope hunt, I had an appointment at the hospital for a CT scan on my shoulder. The ortho dr wanted a more concise view of the damage before my upcoming joint replacement surgery. Much worse than expected, I need a bone graft too., which he doesn't do. I have been referred to a...

Finally got some pictures of a "Pinto" fawn that was dropped this summer. The doe shows some spotting, but not like this little tyke. Really pretty. We have quite a few mule deer that are here all the time. Bucks come in during the winter for the rut and then pretty much disappear.

Heading out in the morning for my Colorado antelope hunt. I was given a suggestion to look at an area east of my place and last March spent some days looking there. Saw a fair number of them so I cashed in my 14 points for a tag. There are only 25 tags, so should be a good hunt. I saw 2 nice...

Just got back from the range checking out my 25-06 before antelope hunting a couple of weeks away. Decided to take my custom .220 Ackley Improved Swift and shoot it too. I just finished re-bedding it. I wasn't too happy with the bedding job I did several years ago. # shot group at 100 yards...

I have a SPOT that I don't us anymore, 3 years old....like new. Case and manual. $50.00 + 8.00 shipping. CC

My alma mater and who I played football for against Alabama. GO TROJANS!!!

It started to cloud up this AM and a storm rolled in right after noon. Been raining here all afternoon with lightning & thunder and about 50 degrees. It is August and the La Platas got a dusting of snow. Me thinks this is a bit early!

I just received an email from SPOT informing me that the current plan that my device is under contract to SPOT is being discontinued. The new program will cost $149.95 annually vs the $99.95 I currently pay. Hard to find out exactly why a 50% increase, but for me it seems to be just a little bit...

Later this month I'll be heading to a lake here in SW Colorado that is loaded with crawdads. I'll be taking a couple of traps and should catch a lot of them little buggers. I was wanting to hear from any of you that do a boil on them...what is you favorite spice to use. Our local markets don't...

Received my refunds for Moose and Desert Sheep in the mail today. Those that didn't draw should be getting their too.

The weather sure is wet here in the SW part of the state. Our snowpack was great and runoff is getting well along. Our local lakes are getting full and everything looks like a great spring. It has been raining of & on for several weeks which just adds to our moisture. I have only irrigated a...

UH got me thinking about just the opposite of his post. What shot did you take that you wish you could take back? For me the one that really stands out was on a buck deer many years ago. My Dad and I were hunting in the coast range of southern California inland from Ventura. We had just started...
