Mountain Grouse Hunting

Beautiful day at 10,000’! Walked a good 5 miles and didn’t see a single grouse but man what a time to be on the mountain.

Colorado? Utah? Looks like my Utah grouse mountain hiking, uh, hunting.

Good guess! Grand Mesa in Western CO. I don’t post pics of the kids, but they had a great time up there today.

Pretty nice grouse gun too.
What's up with it?

Christensen Mesa .22LR, short and light for longer hikes.

Headed that way in 4weeks!
Elk hunting in W.Wyoming.
Can’t wait.
I always get a fishing license and small game licenses.
Last time no elk (as usual) but caught plenty of cut throat trout and 3- Grouse!
One was a memorable 40yd shot on a ruffed grouse with my M34! Other two were spruce grouse off an overhead limb with the 6” M617 and rat shot….

Sounds like heaven to me
