Hi all. I'm from Grand Junction, Colorado, and I think of the Western Slope as home, but I'm currently in the Albuquerque area for work. Hopefully it will be a quick detour, but for the next several months at least I'm living the New Mexico life and dreaming about getting home to places like the Grand Mesa and West Elk Mountains.
I've always wanted to hunt elk. I've been hunting one season with some more experienced friends without success. My hunting experience is very limited, but I've been backpacking since I was in boy scouts. I'm a forester. I've been a teacher and a wildland firefighter. Hopefully I have some skills and insight that will be useful and will let me start contributing soon, but as far as finding, tracking, killing, and packing out animals goes, I will be that guy asking a bunch of questions that have been asked too many times already.
Looking forward to learning a lot here.
