If there were a fat lady here, she’d be hitting her aria right about now.  She’s still singing, but the orchestra is winding down.  SHOT Show 2011 is drawing to a close.

It’s Been a Fine Year for Powder Lovers

It is difficult to imagine a better year on record for powder addicts. La Niña has been more than generous, dumping massive amounts of snow across the West. How much? Well, check in with Backcountry Magazine or the Adventure Journal, and then think about how old you’ll be the next time La Niña rolls through. [...]

I would almost expect this level of naivety from a ski resort near Provo, Utah, but in Colorado it just seems sad. The level of confusion this could create is something you might never live down.

When Environmental Red Tape Can Really Hurt

A woman from San Francisco who was a tree hugger, a liberal Democrat, and an anti-hunter, purchased a piece of timberland near Boise, Idaho. There was a large tree on one of the highest points in the tract. She wanted a good view of the natural splendor of her land, so she started to climb [...]

It seems that every time another deranged so and so enters a “gun free zone” and massacres one or more people, irrational subjects begin to wail once again demanding more gun control. I am told that gun control is now considered a bad word and the catch term today is gun restrictions. Because, don’t you [...]
