So, based on your information and averaging out the number of days of early notification, it averages out to # of days early notification at 5.583 days so we should have results no earlier than this Friday 4/19..... but who the hell is checking or counting!!?

They've got a good price for the Flying Squirrel suit on Amazon! I'll start a GoFund me page for you!! Good luck brother, shoot a monster Ram!!

See Geno, told you to come into the USAF with me! Hotels, restaurants, swimming pools and charter jets to cross the pond!!! :LOL: :cool:

Put in the Border Patrols number in your phone right now so you can call them to come save your ass when you get stuck up there chasing those stinky little goats!! :p

Hey buddy, don't leave, twist, smash or trash another camper axle!! Take a spare and tools this time!! Good luck

Damn that sux! Last time I drug my camper up there, I ended up dropping the damn water tank out the bottom!! With all the an washboard road, the welds holding the straps broke and the tank ended up on the f*n road! Full tank of water too! Adventure for sure.

I understand the desire to want to experience this and believe me, I don't think there is any other place more beautiful and remote as the VV, BUT personally if I had a ONCE IN A LIFETIME tag somewhere, the last thing I would want running around in the woods with me and the elk would be some...

Well let Tega and I know, we can glass from the bottom while sitting on a cooler full of cold beer and a bottle or 2!! But you arent getting my ol ass wandering up them hills to carry no stinking goat down!!

Geno - I know you buddy and thinking your old bald ass is gonna pack in a camp and stay up there in Feb you're not thinking right or you're hitting the Old Crow again!! :LOL: USMC days are 30yrs behind you partner, us old vets stay in hotels, eat breakfast at the cafe, hunt from 10-2, then...

53 is my home unit and for the youth cow hunt, I wouldn't worry too much about trying to get up into the high country. There are plenty of cows that will be down in the low country. Look for the private land ranches that got unit wide tags from the state, part of their agreement is that they...

Miguel Sanchez, Mine Safety Guy Miguel or kin to??

This is how to do it and makes for just one trip!!

Dude it's crazy as hell! I've never seen such a dismadre in the forest! Trees are literally stacked 4-5ft high! Firewood for the next 3 generations for sure.

Massive blowdown from last Decembers winds have most of 53 in a mess! All the bedding areas we usually hunt are completely down, areas look like new logging areas now. Have seen very very few elk compared to past years and have yet to hear any bugles. Not sure how to tackle this one

I've hunted and been on the VV many many times! Myself, my wife and two of.my daughters have all hunted there. Originally from Questa so kinda my backyard! PM me ill give any info you want plus a little extra on top of that!

Wow!! Good luck topping that hunt and memory! Beautiful ram for sure! Congrats to the young lady!

Picked my 22 Wildtrak Sasquatch this weekend! Super excited about finding it and getting it. Customer had ordered it last year then didn't get it, I just happened to be there to grab it when it rolled off the truck. Gramps had given me his original 68 when I was in high school but dad sold it...

That's awesome! Congrats to you and the young lady!! I got instant flashbacks of when my daughters both took their first big game animals, 2 antelope, 2 mulies and 2 bulls that same year a long long ago!!!! Cherish the memories forever cuz you wont get another chance.

Dang Buddy sorry about the loss! Good news on the house though! On the lighter side, you and I know that you wouldn't be splitting any wood anyhow and WE for sure know you ain't no cowboy and horses would a turned into a rodeo n bucked you off. So saved you some real pain n suffering!!

Update at 1:12pm, just got call from daughter, vadito is now on "Set" and getting ready to evacuate. Winds shifted hard and fire is headed their way. They're being told to leave if they can. View from Vadito area now

Change your prayers for a big bull to prayers for rain or there wont be any need to plan your route! Cerro Pelado fire is growing fast with the winds this week! 42,491 acres 11% contained as of today

My daughter lives in vadito, just down from Sipapu and they were put on "ready" standby on Sunday. They told her to start packing up and most likely be ready to be under mandatory evacuation sometime this week given the wind forecast. A lot of good friends have lost their homes in the Mora area.

Its just that way for u jarheads! Just like military life, us flyboys seem to have things a little better n easier!! ??

Doubled up with the wife attached to my app... had been 3yrs since last draw.

Anybody notice that coryb, this threads author, hasn't chimed in since Sunday and 53posts ago?? ??

Big snow expected now for Christmas, news has Chama forecast with possibility of up to 3'! Colorado news this morning was calling for snow to be measured in FEET along the San Juan and sangre de Cristo ranges. If that doesn't push some of them down I don't know what will.

Good choice, Gil is always in the VV ready to pack. Good luck ?

I've hunted and been in the VV numerous times for family and friend hunts. I'm a "local", from the Questa area and know the game in the VV pretty well. I have several friends that take time off and just hang out in the VV with their horses and do packing for cash. Atmosphere in the campgrounds...

Heard in 53 over the weekend they were getting started and lot of bugling at night. Saw one buddy that pulled a thick 6 for one of his hunters and he nailed it.

Ya, I was in the area (Questa) last year when that snow fall hit and it was massive!! My buddys hunter killed a monster the morning after the snow fell

Just a matter of time before they start talking and let us know where they are! Hopefully they'll be vocal in October. What hunt do you have? I'll be there with an uncle for 2nd archery and again with a son in law for the Muzzleloader hunt, my personal favorite. We've been lucky, my wife had the...

Wife and I went all RED this year, BUT son in law drew the VALLE VIDAL Muzzleloader tag and daughter drew 1st rifle 53. Valle here we come!!

As quoted from LA BAMBA in the scene where Bob takes Richie to the Ho House in Mexico, "Pick any one you want, or pick two! It's like high school prom only this prom PUTS OUT!!" :LOL:

Its the first one that counts right!!! Great buck, good job.

Damn!! That is one helluva opening day! Good job

One of the best stories I've heard this year!! Great job bud!!! Saludes and congrats to your pops!

I was going to offer Geno's services with or without him agreeing!! Lol Thanks for stepping up Geno!!
