Real Hunting

Real Hunting
[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Gary VandenLangenberg

This story was originally published in the Fall 2021 issue of Backcountry Journal.   By Gary VandenLangenberg   With a natural love of animals and a curiosity for all things wild, my oldest son Forest grew up like many of you. Our yard and the cattail filled ditch behind our house was his arena of exploration and discovery, he and his younger brother Lake constantly flipping over our landscape stones looking for worms, pill bugs and other creepy crawlies. When Forest was 5 years old, I ...

An Old Law Gets a New Look to Help Prevent CWD in California

An Old Law Gets a New Look to Help Prevent CWD in California
[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Jake Wright
A few weeks ago, my flawless run as a law-abiding hunter and angler in the State of California came to an end.  Now as someone who values conservation and takes fish and game laws in any state seriously, this was a serious dent in my street / backcountry cred – how could I have possibly dropped the ball?  Well – there’s good and bad news here; the good news is this little mistake has, in turn, lead to this blog post - so hopefully it raises some compliance awareness, but the bad news is that ...

The Ambler Road: A Threat to the Brooks Range Wilderness

The Ambler Road: A Threat to the Brooks Range Wilderness
[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Alaska BHA
When I was young, my family and I were camped above the shore of Walker Lake preparing for a 10-day raft trip that would take us down the Kobuk River, to the village of Kobuk. Walker Lake sits just inside the Gates of the Arctic National Park, nestled into a valley on the south side of the Brooks Range, about 75 air miles to the west of Bettles. The mountains rising up on either side of the lake shore are covered in white spruce and tall shrubs that give way to tundra and rock as they gain ...

Venison and Ramp Sandwiches

Venison and Ramp Sandwiches
[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Zachary Williams
By Sam Dhaliwal and Oliver Classen This recipe is a new take on an old favorite. This steak sandwich highlights two of the tastiest ingredients in the woods--deer and ramps. Savory venison is complemented by the tangy, sweet, and slightly spicy pickled ramps in a combination that is simple, fresh, and delicious. Hopefully, the venison ramp sandwich will give you a break from the monotony of sauteing your ramps and turning every big hunk of deer meat in the freezer into a pot ...
