Missouri BHA Joins Coalition in Defending Lindenlure River Access

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Missouri BHA Chapter
Historic use at the Lindenlure access site The Finley River is a 54-mile-long tributary of the James River, most of it flowing through Christian County, Missouri. It is a well known waterway used for swimming, floating and fishing. The “Lindenlure” access, located just below Lindenlure Lake, has been used by generations of families by way of Canyon Road. As David Romano of the Rivers Access Coalition writes, "The public easement and right of access at Lindenlure dates back some 100 years — ...

Bill continues effort to balance wildlife data with hunter ethics

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Montana BHA
Balancing the public’s right to know with potentially sensitive data about wildlife is the subject of a bill from an East Helena lawmaker. Democratic Sen. Jill Cohenour’s Senate Bill 2 builds off of legislation passed in 2019 that banned the use of the exact location of GPS-monitored wildlife obtained through state open records law for the purpose of hunting. The newest bill provides additional language for the release of wildlife location data by Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks by ...

Dersu the Trapper by V. K. Arseniev

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Brandon Ellis
  This title is part of BHA's Jim Posewitz Digital Library: Required Reading for Conservationists   Days after finishing V.K. Arseniev’s Dersu the Trapper, I found myself walking a mostly forgotten trail in the woods of Montana with an axe in one hand, and an over and under in the other. It was not my intention to recreate the imagery of the book, but it happened organically out of inspiration. The shotgun was for grouse, and the axe was for cleaning trail. It was the clearest and best I ...

North America's Most Extreme Big Game Hunt

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Janet George

  BY JANET GEORGE A hunter must earn the privilege of experiencing the rugged grandeur of mountain goat country. Each rocky step makes you more appreciative of the mountain goat’s perseverance in a world of extremes. Extreme terrain, extreme wind and extreme cold all combine to make goat country one of the most spectacular and severe environments in North America. Such extremes have molded the mountain goat, as author/biologist Douglas Chadwick dubbed “a beast the color of winter.” And ...

Venison Sausage Stuffing

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Wade Truong
If you’re reserving stuffing for only holiday meals, you’re seriously missing out. While this dish by Field to Table contributor Wade Truong is perfect as a holiday side, it’s no less delicious at any other time of the year. There is an argument to be made that the best parts of a holiday meal are the side dishes. The turkey or ham (or both) are supposed to be the headliners, but I find myself going back for seconds and thirds of stuffing and gravy more often than the bird or the pig. The ...

Take Action for Sunday Hunting in Virginia

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Mid-Atlantic BHA
Photo courtesy of board member Wade Truong Restrictions on Sunday hunting are an impediment to reasonable hunting access, limiting the opportunities of working hunters and restricting hunter recruitment and retention.    HB 1799, introduced by Delegate James E. Edmunds, would remove the Sunday hunting prohibition for all species on Virginia's public lands. The passage of this bill could mean that Virginia’s 261,000 sportsmen and women could spend double their time afield, increasing our ...

Sometimes a Poor Notion - UT BHA Opposes Book Cliffs Highway

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Trisha Hedin
Elk camp at the head of East Canyon. This area would be paved over if the highway becomes a reality.  Once again, the Seven County Infrastructure Coalition (SCIC) has proposed to construct a highway known as the Eastern Utah Regional Connection through the Book Cliffs. The proposed highway would connect to an existing stretch of road paved recently, which currently ends at the Uinta-Grand County line.

Empowering Leaders: It’s In BHA’s DNA

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: David Lien
In the Spring 2020 Backcountry Journal, editor Zack Williams penned a piece, “Reactivated,” describing how he started bowhunting at an early age, but then drifted away from hunting later in life, only to return upon discovering “this small but rapidly growing organization called Backcountry Hunters & Anglers.”[1] I was fortunate to grow up hunting and fishing the public lands and waters of northern Minnesota. The state’s more than 12 million acres of public lands encompass the Boundary ...
