Good to hear! The states currently in control have shown that they are more than capable of managing these species on their own. Bravo to the .gov for stepping down. That seems to be a rare occurance these days!

Where would be a good place to start information on wolf hunting? I have not done it but have had them through my camps in overnighters before in Palisades. I think I would like to take a wolf.

Wolf hunting isn't easy. You have to locate where they are first. That could mean getting tips at the local coffee shop from ranchers. Or it could mean driving around at night, rolling down your windows and calling. Once you have them located it is a matter of literally tracking them down - following tracks until you catch up. I say this because this is the approach that I've taken, but I have not been successful yet  But others have with this simple approach. There is probably no better replacement than lots of time in the field, getting to know an area inside and out. Then you will know if there are wolves there, and where they hang out. Wolf hunting probably depends less on certain wolf hunting skills, and more on knowing an area - the land - and where the wolves are.

Thanks for the tips. I know I have seen tracks in palisades in the past. A pair came right through our camp at night. I just have to figure out where they hang.

Palisades is a great area to get to know. Love it in those mountains.
