I will be hopin Mr. Smithhammer will be driving down, sudden change in temperature could cause him to crack..

Be sure ya got TWEEZERS or Duct tape. A bunny squealer helps ( sounds just like a baby Javie or one in distress. They worked well in TX. Also works on cats and yotes……

Having spent time with Aldo’s son Luna, breaking bread as well as sitting in on many of his teachings. Anyone will benefit from any of that family’s teachings and views…..Enjoy that time….

Eidsvolling….Right on, That would explain it.

Family and Cultural traditions are nothing more or nothing less than Internet Fables……..I shall no more question why a tradition exists or if it has any validity in today’s thinking.

Thanks for the taking time to read and respond.

I’m off to London’s Picadilly Circus,:wink:

I’ve always been under the impression that Goats were native. The ones in Jellyrock / Cody would then be transplants?

I was thinking that I remember reading in Osborn Russell’s (Journal of a Trapper) of them seeing the white hairy animals that resembled Goats… and they traveled up the Canyon.………..Remember I have a scrambled thinking machine, so I must defer to those of sounder body and sharper mind………… Yet we both enjoy the tension of the Brown Trout Tug………………….

Bruce; I completely agree with you on the costs. I can almost hunt, more species in MT. than I can here…Only saving grace for me is my, VA disability rating as well as time in country, affords some perks, not much but some.

Resident Goat tag will cost $122.00…there were 21 permits in 2014 with a .6o% chance of success.

Now.. If you are unfortunate enough to be a Non-Resident the tag was $2,152.00….There were 7 tags with a 1.03% chance of success.

These tag costs are just a start, if you want to hunt with a “BOW” there is a $16.00 Archery license for Resident..Yep $30.00 for Non-Resident…..Then you’ll need a $12.50 Conservation stamp.Both Res. and Non-Res. pay the same.

That makes a Total cost for just a TAG…..Resident will pay…$150.50..Here comes the REAL disparity, the Non-Resident needs to come up with $2194.50 Just for the right to hunt these Hairy UN-shaven beasts…. All this is if you make the cut. Now ya gotta get here to use that tag!!

It was still very cool to see them after all this time hearin about them….50 +or- winters….. Now a Spring / Summer stumpin trip might be in order to see them on their summer range

Thanks Bruce…..Retired last week, sold the Clack, NO MORE GUIDE fer HIRE. New home ON the New Fork. Ready to start becomein shiftless and irresponsible. 26 years pushin other folks down rivers, and cleanin their dead anomalies. It’s come time to do it for ourselves , become more active in OUR passions. Then ya log in cuz it’s time to be a tad more active and less of a LURKER. OOPS forgot to pay the rent, NO MORE. We signed on for the EXTENDED STAY plan. So stand ready the “BULL” is loose.

Is there a chapter of Back Country close to Pinedale that your aware of ?
