    So, i wrote a letter to Ryan Zinke....

    Way to go 406! Hunters and anglers, when we speak out, are an awesome force. I encourage everybody to speak up for hunting and fishing. We all need to get off our butts and be heard.

    Dry ice

    I just completed a six-night wilderness float trip and am now a fan of dry ice. We put cubed ice atop the dry ice and had nice chilled cocktails on the final night of our trip. The only problem we had is the dry ice toasted out fresh mint for Moscow mules.

    Need camo coat suggestions

    I have a November either-sex elk muzzleloader hunt in Idaho. Great, great hunt that already has my full attention. One thing I need before November is a camo coat. There are so many great options out there that I get paralysis by analysis. I am looking for suggestions for a good outer layer...

    Should Rokslide Sign This?

    https://www.doi.gov/sites/doi.gov/files/uploads/so_3353.pdf Sec. Zinke wants to review the sage grouse ruling of late 2014 or early 2015. There is broad-based support for the sage grouse plans, but there have been a number of complaints too. Federal overreach is one area of concern for some...

    How screwed am I?!?!?

    You aren't screwed. Listen to your body in the hills. Your buddy has the tag and that doesn't mean you have to hike every mountain he challenges.

    Idaho considering limiting non resident opportunity

    As we look to the future, I think it is important that we all try to limit breaking the hunting community into smaller subgroups, such as residents, non-residents or clients and DIY hunters. My reasoning is that we need each other to make for a more powerful voice to ensure hunting continues for...

    The worst game or fish you've eaten

    As a youngster, my mom would take a weekend's catch and make trout patties. Sounds OK. My mom, however, was a little liberal with what made the patty and what went into the trash. I struggle to eat trout to this day.

    Looking for ideas for stops on family vacation

    Yellowstone, Grand Teton National Park are great stops. If you want a great taste of Idaho, however, I would consider going to Salmon and booking a day trip on the Salmon River downstream of Shoup. As you book your trip, make sure you are visiting the national parks on a weekday. The weekends...

    Most unusual thing you've seen in the woods

    I opened this thread and thought I had a good story to tell. I saw skull, pictured dildos and soft ice cream. This thread rocks and my story doesn't measure up. It is not worthy.
