    Ted Cruz

    The actual words used by Ted Cruz indicate that he would like to “return full CONTROL of Nevada’s lands to its citizens.” There was no mention of selling or giving away land and I’m not sure how state management of these lands would be a bad thing. 85% of Nevada is owned by the federal...

    Critique my clothing for CO early season elk!

    I would add a merino short sleeve shirt and a couple merino boxer briefs. I would also second dotman’s recommendation for fleece or some type of synthetic mid-layer.
