    Don't underestimate old guy strength

    I’ve noticed a group of guys on this site that hate on testosterone replacement. What’s the deal? I have a friend on it that says it changed his life for the better in several different ways. Good for him. I don’t really care what drugs someone else is on. Why do you?

    Don't underestimate old guy strength

    Yeah, there ain’t shit you can do about tendons and cartilage as you age. They break. The best advice for guys in their 30s and 40s is to forget about CrossFit. Dynamic loading is just not needed when you age. Get strong. Pure barbell strength is overlooked. I’ve been doing Starting Strength...

    Nature Conservancy and the Western Solar Project

    I’m going tinfoil hat with a chin strap on this one. Somebody somewhere is buying a private yacht with a heli-pad and pallet of blow from the cash they are raking in on this scam. See my earlier post - there’s more than one suspect on the Nature Conservancy board with ties to investment...

    Nature Conservancy and the Western Solar Project

    Here’s a direct line of sight to what’s driving this for those of you still defending the Nature “Conservancy”. From 5 minutes of google, here’s a board member: And what does the Carlyle Group spend money on? We could probably do this all day sadly.

    Pre-Post retirement Budgeting

    A strategy that several men in my workplace seem to be implementing is to just not retire. “Die with your boots on” mentality. It seems to be working out for now. Several of them are mid seventies and still at it, keeping the business running from the top. I get it. When we have holidays longer...

    Nature Conservancy and the Western Solar Project

    I’m against any type of energy development that removes wildlife habitat. Period. A single 100 acre site with a nuclear facility would cancel the western solar project. “Renewable energy” conveniently ignores physics when there’s easy money to be made.

    Nature Conservancy and the Western Solar Project

    Would you prefer "environmentalist stooge" as an accepatable alternative to clown? Explain how this guy can sit there and say that we MUST destroy American public wildlife habitat in order to stop global climate change caused by the rest of the world. I don't care about your local chapter or...

    Nature Conservancy and the Western Solar Project

    I noticed something very telling in what he was saying when Steve pushed back on urban areas. Why not start in urban areas and rooftops where there is no wildlife habitat? He kept bringing it back to BLM, how we MUST stop climate change, and giving excuses why urban solar projects are too hard...

    Nature Conservancy and the Western Solar Project

    Anybody catch the Nature Conservancy clown on Meateater this week? Highly worth the listen if you are unaware what that group stands for. Basically a puppet for the current administration. They support the destruction of 20 something million acres of BLM habitat in the name of fighting the...

    White Cloud Outfitters

    “Paper pushing offense” or otherwise, when you mess around with the Feds you are operating under FAFO rules. Up to 5 years locked in a cage and $250,000 fine. Agree with it or not, they knowingly broke those silly little rules put in place by a federal agency. And it sounds like OnX or some...

    White Cloud Outfitters

    Anyone know why unit 19 is off limits to guides? The article says they were in the center of 19, which is the Gospel Hump wilderness area. I’m assuming they allow guides in the other wilderness areas with all of the fly in hunts going on in the Frank Church. Also unsettling that GPS locations...

    Idaho Grizzly range?

    I wouldn’t be sad if they showed up in McCall. Could use a few less of the fruitloops in that part of the world. Those people are soft enough to pack up and head out if there was any chance a grizz would interrupt their huckleberry picking.

    ID Bill S1340

    I would prefer if the State of Idaho just offered them hard cash. I don't get to hunt moose, sheep, and goat anyway because demand far outstrips supply. Now there will be a couple hundred more guys out there with $20,000 moose tags in their pocket? Google also says there are ~400 licensed...

    Driving through Idaho

    Keep an eye on the snotel. It could be a year that it opens earlier than normal. Snowpack looking well below average for the time being.

    Favorite Luxury Item?

    Buddy. You have not experienced luxury until you’ve woken up in a canvas tent, put your feet down on a rug, and proceeded to drink coffee next to a crackling wood stove in September.
