According to Don Juan, you don't find peyote, it finds you.

Nice boots, I'd be all over these if they were 13's. For a little guy I wear boats...

The border has the most traffic but there's some sort of illegal activity going on just about everywhere. You could think you're safe by putting in for deer in the Mazatzal's, then wander into an illegal pot growing camp. Me and some buddies were camped at Lime Creek Cabin one night, watching the campfire die down and about to turn in when we heard people going down the trail which was about 200' up above us on the canyon. We got quiet and listened as they approached then we realized they were speaking Spanish. They were using no lights and it was black out. Nv goggles? Couple days later, ran into a ranger on the way out and told him what had happened, he said they (the guberment) were aware of and dealing with lots of grow operations in the hills.

Small world indeed, turns out ol muledeerarea33? lives next door to an old buddy of mine.

Surveyors of yesteryear used chain but a taunt wire works. If you can see the near corner, line up on it and then swing 90 degrees if the property is square. Put your corner posts/ braces first then stretch a wire.

Two of my three kids are combat seasoned marines, so yes, I would love to have them along. The bad guys from down Mexico way, exploit weaknesses in border law enforcement and have for the most part, chosen the indian reservation and Nat'l monument lands to enter the US. I spend several weeks per year packing into the Whetstones, and it has been a decade since I encountered illegals in there. Only encounters I've had in there since 2004 are with local cowboys and the Border Patrol. Spent last Christmas and Thanksgiving in those beloved hills. Last X-mas eve, the BP saw my camp from the air and sent a couple agents in to investigate. They too said they had seen no illegal activity in the area.

Here's some pics from shed hunting last week. Spent 3 days and covered a lot of miles, found all the sheds in the last 24 hours being out there. Did see lots of elk and antelope, including a big antelope buck. One bull I saw was still wearing shiny bone, the rest in velvet. Try and guess the GMU.

Indian Springs, Eagletails...

These are located near Lime Creek Cabin.

Thanks Ben, Good luck with that Elk tag.

Daaaaaaaaaannnggggggg

$30 for everything?

How well do these work, I was thinking about getting one. Where u shipping it from?

Let me know what dia. and length.

Nice.

Spent a week in Reavis and thought I was boiling all my water but got Giardia.

There are laws now forbidding the harassment and scouting of wildlife with manned aircraft, soon there will be for unmanned as well. In time, the FAA will step in and control the airspace and below certain AGL elevations they are permitted to fly. If these crafts are blatantly breaking the rules, shoot them down. It's sad that we responsible folks even need rules. There's always A-holes out there ready to ruin things for everyone.

Congrats. Looks like you took vacation time at the right time.

You sooooo horny, long time!

Sounds great, document all. You'll have to time it around any fire restrictions that might be in place. Oh, and don't forget to weigh yourself before and after.

Newt Whites grave in Humbug and a murder victim in a stage robbery on the Columbia Trail.

Would like to see Elisha Reaves's grave marked along the trail.

The dog is Mr. B. He's 3/4 mini Aussie and rest is heeler.. A friend just happened to be in a PetSmart when a customer came in looking for him to be rescued. He's a very loyal friend but a bit of a drama king. He climbed up this cattle chute and I thought what a great picture it would be. While turning the camera on, he climbed back down. I directed him back up it for a picture and here is the look I got.... The horse, Faver was passed over for the movie since he'd never breezed a race track or loaded in a starting gate. Interesting, he's not a Thoroughbred but rather a solid paint overo..

no, I haven't posted pics there, just used the website when I was curious where someone was buried. I ride a lot north of Lake Pleasant, and used to live down south. Lots of graves in these hills.

No apologies needed, enjoyed answering the question on white hooves. If you're in the nw valley, come over and meet the horses sometime. Some of the farriers on this forum may disagree with me but if you take care of your horses nutritional needs and they are kept active and have good conformation, shoes may not be needed. Still, there are some horses with such weak hoof material or founder, navicular problems, shoes are helpful, maybe a must.
