Really enjoyed it last year. This year I’m caregiving for my wife and my mom so cannot attend. If anyone is unsure if they should go or not. Go! Tremendous body of knowledge in the presenters. And a great time to network with other trappers.

We weren't sure what to expect the first year we went, now it is a must go.
Everyone is great, demos down to the attendees.
Getting to meet folks I interact with on here was also a big plus.
If you can make it come on out !!

Seven days and the invasion of Lusk will begin.

Long range forecast has it at 77 and 82 degrees respectively. Nice!

All roads lead to camp cattrax. We will be.thinking of you Tom.

Yeah, Steven describes it best! The invasion.

Coyote Days changes this small town for 4 days

We’ll be setting up Thursday afternoon, a week from today

The event officially kicks off at 7:45 Friday morning with the National Anthem and a brief introduction.

The demo lineup is world class, and I mean that sincerely.

The food will be great, and the concessions will open at 6 a.m. each day

The NY steak loins will be picked up and sliced Friday, for the Saturday night banquet.

The roundtable Friday night will be under the roof of the new pavilion, and the open air atmosphere is nice .

Camp Cattrax has been looked forward to all year, and yes, Tom will be honored well

Coyote Days 2026 is going to be another one for the books folks, don’t miss it

Friday/Saturday. Aug 14-15. LUSK, WY

Have a great day everyone

John, you have the round table listed as Saturday in your above post.

Is that a typo?

Good catch Steven!

I changed it, thanks

I can’t believe Bill Ilchik didn’t catch it!

Lookin forward to it see y’all there coming from NW Texas

Bring that wine

A pair of Dave McCroskey originals I had made for the auction during Saturday nights banquet

5 more days until the barbarian horde descends upon Wyoming. Judging from the amount of MN people who told me they are coming it will look like a North Dakota duck slough

I've been enquired by several what or if there is anything they can bring to the camp cookout. This years answers is dessert.

All roads leads to camp cattrax

Steve, those are some 'fine' looking knives

3 more days until the festivities kick off

Hopefully I'll be there early enough on Thursday to eat at the world famous pizza joint

Yep, see everyone soon!

It looks like we’re going to be getting some rain Thursday evening, but that’s ok

We are in bad shape here, and my rancher friends will welcome it, so I have to say in advance, don’t curse the rain!

Jim and I have already talked about it, and we’ve made a plan

We’ll have 2 demo areas set up, and possibly use both, depending on weather

We’ll have the usual demo areas set, south of the building set up with bleachers and also the open air Pavillion set up with a demo spot and lots of tables and chairs too

We WONT bounce back and forth, that takes up too much time, and we run a pretty tight schedule to get all TWEVTY demos in! But, we’ll play it by ear

It will work out just fine

And, Sturgis is going on, and with Eastern Wyoming being on their corridor of traveling from the south, there is a LOT of bikes on the road. Be extra cautious driving, because they do take chances at times

We start setting up the main building to the south on Thursday afternoon, but the doors actually open at 6 a.m. on Friday.

Safe travels everyone, and see you all soon

John

World famous pizza joint?

World famous!

Or at least that is what I have been told. You need the secret handshake to get in

Headed that way in the early morning! It’s Finally Here!

Who’s getting the buckle this year?
Wish I could make it but just got back from Idaho and already had to cancel a quick Sask convention this Saturday. While I was gone, I was “voluntold” that I was working a scheduled power outage this weekend. At least the credit card will like the OT……lol.

Little over half way to Lusk, only 6 more hours of driving tomorrow. World famous pizza for dinner tomorrow, yah!

I'm putting the final touches on loading the truck. I have a newbie coming along, my young daughter decided I'm cool enough to hang out with me.

I'm going to work an hour this morning and when the morning safety meeting is finished it's off to the races.

Travel safely and be careful there is going to be a ton of motorcycle traffic this weekend
