I love that “mittens” area! Camped out there once and was disturbed from sleep by wild dogs. Hope you make it back there.

Still debating between Arizonia,Nevada,and Kansas.Everything got postponed untill I turn 65 next year.I can then get my lifetime hunting,trapping,and fishing license here in Maine and then become a resident of one of those 3 states living there in the winter time, and working here in Maine for Baxter State Park summers.

Arazonia and Nevada may have better bobcats. Kansas has some cruel winters but excellent lakes for fishing.

Those pictures are fantastic looking. I've only flown over the Grand Canyon. I've never seen in it person.

For the most part, Nevada bobcats are better than Arizona bobcats. Especially in the northern part of the state. But northern Nevada has more of the “S” word. Just saying.

Yep,exactly what I'm looking at.Might have to go to footholds on private land and cage traps on public land in Arizonia.Plus the wife likes Arizonia much better then Nevada.

Both eastern Oregon and Utah have limits on cats. 5 in eastern Oregon, not sure about Utah. Idaho and Nevada are unlimited.

Nevada you have to be a resident to trap bobcats.I believe Utah has a limit.

we are going last week of April through the first week of May. decided It was to early in the seasion for Yellow Stone and moving the dates just had to many schedule conflicts. I didn't want my wife to have to cancel a NY other planed events so we decided on making a loop to the grand canyon, down to the Alamo see the Old native cut in the rock houses among other things.
