Hunting Bison in the Shadow of the Tetons
December 1st, 2011
Live Water Properties Broker, Matt MacMillan, grins as he poses with his prized buffalo. Jackson, Wyoming’s National Elk Refuge is one of the few places in the US where you can hunt free ranging wild bison. Matt pulled a special tag with limited permits this hunting season. The refuge suggests hunters pass a bison identification exam available online as a tool to help hunters differentiate between bulls and cows. A one to two-year-old bull and a mature cow are difficult to distinguish. To learn more about how you can go bison hunting in the shadow of the Tetons, click here.

Bull Elk Hunt
September 23rd, 2011
By: Alex Maher
Took a short walk Monday morning solo to try out a new area east of Moran, in Grizzly country, planned to be back to the truck by 10am on a 3 mile loop. I heard a bull bugle at 7am downwind of me, and despite an attempt to circle downwind of him, he never made another peep. I’m guessing he smelled me coming. I continued on through the thick timber, picking up more elk sign as I went, marked a huge watering hole on the GPS (probably where that bull had bugled), and I bugled every 20 minutes with no responses. At 8am, I sat down on a log in the middle of a well-traveled elk trail to have a snack. With about one bite left on the granola bar, I heard a half-bugle up ahead in the timber 200 yards or so. » More: Bull Elk Hunt
A Saturday in September: Fishing on the Snake River
September 21st, 2011
By: Macye Maher
Today Beckett (5) and I went with Scott Smith and fished from the dam at Jackson Lake to Pacific Creek. It was epic. A chilly wind and powerful sunshine created a decadent fishing atmosphere. Beckett caught three cutthroat on a dry fly, all of which just surprised Scott and me to no end. The cast grew better and better. The first cutty took on a skating fly and the other two we watched very visual trout “takes”, and when we told Beckett to set, he did urgently. He fought them well, and afterwards gave thumbs up and a smile. He is a patient and happy angler, loves the boat and went barefoot the whole day.
