same . I had to put a new roof on my house this spring. of coarse once that was done I had to paint it (house)also.Every year, the wife and I are gonna go......yet haven’t! Same with our Spring Bear hunt......every year it’s gonna happen! The sad thing is, we would be Bear hunting and shed hunting in the same area....less than 70 miles from our front door! But, I can tell you all about the many hours we’ve spent working around the house this Spring! memtb
I was going to go back to Wyoming and spend a few days doing some shed hunting but the guy whose place I stayed at told me that I would be wasting my time because the snowmobilers pick up 90% of them before it was legal. They find some but he said that most get picked up and cashed in places until the first day of the season.Several of my friends went out on the first legal day in one of our favorite areas. They found nothing but the tracks of people, horses, and 4 wheelers that had gone out before it was legal.
there is a shed season? never heard of that.
Typically doing to many "fun" things this time of year to worry about sheds. mountain bikes and whitewater come first!
is it just a wyoming thing? So i take it, you can go hike, bike and snowmobile, ski ect in these areas before shed season, just not pick up sheds?I don’t know about other states, but in Wyoming the season is placed to protect the animals during their wintering months to pretect them from unnecessary stress! Shed hunting is very popular here, and the hundreds of people entering the wintering feeding areas can severely harm animals already weakened/stressed from several months of extreme cold, winds, and often rather deep snow! memtb
Same as Colorado. Some closures exist on public land.I don’t know about other states, but in Wyoming the season is placed to protect the animals during their wintering months to pretect them from unnecessary stress!

I haven’t actually checked or verified the details, but I do know that interfering with the animals in their winter habitat is highly discouraged! Again, I believe that there are some areas closed to recreation to protect the animals, also many forest roads, two tracks, ect. are closed to vehicular traffic until late spring/ early summer! memtbis it just a wyoming thing? So i take it, you can go hike, bike and snowmobile, ski ect in these areas before shed season, just not pick up sheds?
