    Western NY to Colorado Springs- which route to choose

    Went out from PA in sept. Took 80 out because I wanted to see what it was like. Spent a lot on tolls and hit a lot of construction zones. To the point it was starting to drive me nuts. Came home 70 and won’t do it again.

    Route 70 vs 80

    Thanks for the replies! I usually leave on wed or thurs but this time it will be fri evening. I don’t mind the ride until usually Kansas - gets pretty boring to Denver. Wasn’t sure if Nebraska or I-80 was a better ride or not.

    Route 70 vs 80

    We’re heading to CO from PA. I’ve always taken I70 but I80 is about the same travel time. For those of you who have traveled 70 & 80 traveling from the east to west or vice versa, do you prefer one over the other?

    I saw your post of your situation. I’m not sure I can be a lot of help as Ive never hunted these areas, but I too looked into hunting each one and have scoured over both. I know the northern part of 78 above rt160 had a large burn area in 2013. They say 5-7yrs after a burn and the elk really dig...

    I was reading your post about altitude and being a flat lander. I live near Gettysburg and my first trip out was rough. It affected me all week to the point that it basically ruined my hunt. My last trip out, I got Altitude Rx off Amazon (read the reviews). It’s an herbal supplement, not a drug...

    Grizzlies while moose hunting AK/BC

    Thanks for all the input. Kevin Dill, that’s a diff approach from what you normally hear but makes a lot of sense. I’ve done the same with the urine around camp for Black bears but for truly wild bears, it makes sense with the food! Thanks for sharing!

    Grizzlies while moose hunting AK/BC

    While I’m in the beginning stages of looking for a moose hunt, with AK and BC being of interest, what advice do you have for hunting grizzly territories like these? I have zero experience with them. A buddy and I were looking into a AK diy hunt. Can 2 of you sleep peacefully at night?!

    Canada Moose hunt ideas

    Canada/Newfoundland Moose hunt ideas 2 of us are just in the process of starting to look into a moose hunt for about 2-3 yrs out. We really want to do Alaska but for our first trip are considering sticking to Canada since the travel (from PA) would be easier and less costly. We’d like to DIY or...
