Look up the FS office. Or if they have them in Tucson REI, or a hiking store, or a map store like wide world of maps (in phoenix, don't know about your town)

X2 to what he said

SNL is where Palins quote "I can see Russia from my house" came from. People actually believe Palin said it rather than Tina Fey.

It pretty sad when the first real reporting and hard questions come from univision and not our main stream media. http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0912/81470.html?hp=t1_3

Because "Husein's" (Hussein) college record would help determine what kind of president he would be? Does it matter if he has a Master's or Ph.D. or a J.D.? I thought the point was that he wasn't born here, not that he didn't go to school here. Or are you concerned about his grades? I remember your quote, "I would much rather have Hillary in the White House than this fool." As much as libertard as you may think I am, I, like many Americans, consider myself a raging moderate. Even I couldn't countenance Hillary. Geez. I don't think it's the grades Obama is hiding. I think it's the birth country he put down to get favorable treatment and grants. ( I didn't say he wasn't born here )

Cool video. I was sniffed by a baby elk once. It bolted when I laughed.

Go get em! If my pm helped you owe me a steak! I'm actually temped to come help. Let me know what your plans are.

PM sent

It doesn't help when you need to overcome an obvious media propaganda machine called the news. The white house dictates news to media matters. Media Matters stories are picked up by most of the lame stream media news outlets. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/09/18/emails-show-justice-working-with-media-matters-to-target-critics/ And then of course the slanted writing... Romney "Middle income is 200K to 250K and less" What gets printed is "Middle income is 200K to 250K" to make him look out of touch.

I wouldn't think so. Unless you saw obvious foul play I would say it's just nature.

That looks like the contrail of a missile launch. When the light is just right you can see it from several states away.

Try being illegal in the country south of us. That won't end well. We could mirror the laws of where ever the illegal person is from, (Short of death of course), the illegal should know those laws. The USA is very lenient compared to most other countries. Heaven forbid you get asked to show papers or questioned about your legal status here in the USA. I was in Germany all of 30 minutes before I was asked to see papers.... this was after customs and as I was waiting for luggage. I didn't mind, they have a right to know who is in the country. The same should apply here.

I like my M77 MKII .270 so much I bought it twice. I kicked myself for selling it, so I bought another. Nice gun.

From a longevity standpoint twist locks never were out. Snap locks eventually don't grip after wear.

I can vouch for the Promaster. It's a great tripod. I have one in my photo studio and it has been trouble free with heavy use and plane travel for over a year now. Well worth the money. I bought it to save flight weight with my gear. I gave up nothing in support. The twist lock legs are trouble free and don't require you to hold the leg above or below... a pet peave of mine on many tripods with twist lock legs. It also has a nice feature in a hook under the main center column where you can hang a pack for extra weight if it's blowing and you want more support. Not only has it been great in the studio, it's held up in the field hunting as well. EDIT: Just read the post above mine... I guess I'm not the only one to like twist legs that don't require extra work.

WOW... tough read but here is the whole story on the drownings from one of the SAR guys. http://hardcoreoutdoor.com/2008/04/01/the-one-i-cant-forget--flash-flood-kills-boy-scouts-and-troop-leader--march-28-1998.aspx

The ironic thing is sometimes the gate is open, but then locked again. I don't know if that is for rancher access or what but someone could get locked in.

I think the official story is litigation from a drowning and fire. But I think the real reason is they are in a pattern of closing and not reopening lots of land.

I'm no expert so educate me... how are those a pair? They don't look like they came from the same deer. Is it just the basic same size, the similar off shoot on the rear tine, the similar size girth and eye guards? To many similarities to be coincidence even though the left is clearly a non typical. I should add... AWESOME sheds

Copied from another forum Today I was mushroom hunting and gave a ride to a very nice, younger archery hunter on Hart Prairie road. He left a key piece of his gear in my truck. If the person in question is reading this, or if any of you guys know who it might be... have them contact me @ 928-853-8200. An accurate description of said item and I will get it back to you asap. The kid mentioned he was born and raised in Flag, but I didn't catch his name. If any of you who frequent the other boards can spread the word or keep your ear out for a young hunter missing some gear, I would love to get it back to him. Thanks!

Black Diamond headlamps. I like the brightness when cranked up, but the dim feature is great when you have good night vision going and don't want to kill it. Also has red led, spot and flood settings. That packs a lot in a little unit. I have 2 and thats all I take when I leave the truck.

Just a bump for an awesome shooting bow. I love mine.

Hmmmm camera dates can be adjusted

I was doing a conditioning hike this morning and a random thought came to mind. If I hike in the day before my hunt, or hike out the day after (backpack hunting) could I be ticketed for hunting out of season? I wouldn't have the gun loaded. Thoughts?

He's just one tough buck. Look how many times he's been shot.
