    We just found out we have one of the 10 tags in the family. It's a youth tag and his first big game hunt!

    I drew unit 8. Not sure which tag but the fire could make this hunt interesting

    It's not the same but we are doing a pork shoulder covered in bacon that we smoked from the same hog. All on an electric smoker.We are still going to celebrate the 4th!

    Watch where you go. Up here we can't even use propane grills this year. Coconino county has restricted them right now. Also all forest and state trust lands are closed with now.

    Rafael fire

    I talked to some of the guys on the fire last night. Sounds like they have it handled.

    Rafael fire

    They evacuated South Garland so they could do back burns is what we were told.

    Rafael fire

    I am just north of the fire. We finally got a little rain last night. Not enough but anything helps.

    Unit 8 early archery bull

    I know they had a plane on it last night, but I hadn't seen anything else about it. Hopefully they can put it out in the canyon if it gets on top it could be really bad.

    Unit 8 early archery bull

    I should have looked at your link. Last night you could see the flames from Garland Prairie so I assumed it was coming out of the canyon, but I guess its not according to the updates. The latest update I read said they will not put any more resources on the fire until it comes out of the canyon.

    The 20mph winds out of the west pushed it east.

    Coconino NF to fully CLOSE Wednesday 6/23/2021

    Kaibab just said it's closing Wednesday too. Bill Williams has closed the last few summers.

    Coconino NF to fully CLOSE Wednesday 6/23/2021

    I think they will close Kaibab too. We are 8mi east of the evacuation watch for the Rafael fire and its blowing up fast. They put everyone on set mode from parks to flag south of i40

    Access to chronograph?

    https://customturretsystems.com/ I use these for 2 of my rifles and really like them. I prefer them over looking at a chart or app in the field.

    Bear Wallow Cafe closed?

    Yeah they are pretty good right now.

    Bear Wallow Cafe closed?

    Not at all it. We cut all the fins off and gut them. Next we cut right behind the gills to the spine then grab the head and pull back until the spine breaks. Once you do that you can use the head as a handle to peel the skin back towards the tail. That is the only way my grandpa ever cooked trout. My boy likes them breaded and fried so that's what we did.

    I never even wet a line but my boy caught his limit in about an hour. The fishing was great 👍
