Why not both? Buildings are replaceable. Maybe not to what they used to be but being concerned for a feral animal to spread across the kaibab is a legitimate concern that would have long lasting effects. (Even if he was mistaken as to mules not being able to breed).

One of my favorite views from inside a building in the state Loved hanging out on the couches after a hike back up the canyon.

Wearing earplugs is great. Everyone should wear them every time they shoot. Especially when using a brake. Everyone I talk to about ear plugs has a plan. Unfortunately putting them in is most often the part of the plan that is skipped when a quick shot or buck fever kicks in.

Looking back at the 2002 Rodeo Chedeski fire I bet they wish they got those reservation fences fixed pronto like. All those Indian horses crossed over onto NF & public land and the rest is history of nightmarish proportions.

Couple years ago I watched one grab a juvenile cottontail on a job site with a cockiness and aggressiveness of a mountain lion. The other day on old Spanish trail one ran out in front of a car to try and grab some poor critter and got plowed. It brightened my day!

It's picking up it seems. Found a bedding area in the middle of nowhere. Paying off. Still not seeing 'true spikes' yet. There's a unit above this one that's 'any elk' but I really don't wanna dismiss this..

Jan 1, 2024 archery javelina hunt. First thing in the morning I glassed up this lion in the video. I thought that was a bad sign for finding the javelina that he just stole this baby from but happened to find the javelina all feeding a couple hundred yards behind him. He must have snatched it up without it making a peep, otherwise I'd expect the herd to be agitated. This lion stopped after watching him carry the baby for a hundred yards and started eating it but was just slightly covered from my view. Due to the wind, the only way I could get to the javelina was to go 60 yards under the lion under a rock rim, which I did and then snuck into 15 yards from the javelina and got one. I went back to check on the lion and found the tiny remains of his quick meal. Lion.mov

Camping depends where you choose to hunt. If you hunt Paws Pocket, sleep on the ground next to your side by side, if you want to be central take the 5 road south from Colorado City to the triangle which is the junction of Craigs Ranch Rd. If you want to hunt the North and East take Antelope Valley Rd before Pipe Springs and camp at the Robinson Mine Rd. Roads are great until you head south to Paws Pocket, which doesn't get hunted and should have it to yourself. Never know what you can find down there. If you want to see deer drive around the pines.

Yes, the lodge has burned. Mules were turned loose as there was not enough time to evac nor enough trailers. From what I have heard, many but not all NPS housing lost, backcountry office, general storee, campground, visitor center, cabins were lost. The NPS announcement seems to have some spin, imo.

I’m kinda undecided on the primary rifle but will be between a ruger 300wm, rem 700 300 wtby mag or a kimber 308 all topped with Leupolds. The ruger has been on the last couple hunts so will probably get the nod.

Asking 600$, bought this a while back and was gonna build it, but ordered a custom rifle instead, comes with rail, also has threaded bolt knob it’s a 7mm mag

Looks like someone else stopped by. I know it's just a black bear, but it's my first on cam in Washington 😃

I’m gonna give a free bump cuz that looks like a fun rig! I’m actually looking for a manual vehicle to teach my kids to drive and possibly use as a daily…. What kind of mpg, and will it pass the communistic Maricopa county emissions?

re the mules: "news about the mules came in this morning from GRCA Superintendent Ed Keeble: All of the mules, every single one, were corralled and taken safely, and alive, to their main ranch in southern Utah! "

man, you are worried about the mules while dozens of bulidings are destroyed including that beautiful lodge, get a life.

Heartbreaking....My favorite place in AZ. Sitting on the outside porch, feet on the edge, enjoying the sunset. Many times over the last 50 years

SOLD

Local beef and tanner crab. Steak Oscar

Bayou Po Boys, Andouille sausage and shrimp. Either the sausage or my Remulaude sauce was spicy, the wife tapped out after a half, my scalp was sweating after two. I’ll consider it a win

9.9hp only works on a 12' and barely so. I've done a 25hp on a 14' with success having a light camp load and one other guy. I have a 40hp on a 16' and it works well with the boat at capacity. I have a buddy that runs a 35hp on his 16' and he is much slower upriver but it works. All tillers. While I do have a variety of kicker options, a bow mount 24v is key on my 16' at Lees and works well on any rim lake for a day unless the wind really kicks up. P.s. the trout are nothing like they used to be but the rest of the magic remains.
