WINTER IN THE NORTHWESTERN STATES

written by Janet Spoon & Jessica McCollam

When snows begin blanketing the land, outdoor enthusiasts are not deterred or forced to spend the winter indoors. Snow skiing and snowboarding are typically the most popular winter sports but ice fishing, snowshoeing, winter hikes, and even tubing attracts locals and destination thrill seekers alike in several regions in the northwestern states. If you prefer admiring idyllic winter scenes from the comfort of the indoors, lodging is offered in every area. Below are some of the top places to get your winter fun on.

SKIING:

From Cozy Cabins to Majestic Slopes Whitefish Mountain Resort, one of the best ski resorts in the US, is in the Rocky Mountains of Montana. Glacier International Airport in nearby Kalispell, Montana, provides easy access. The community of Whitefish Mountain Resort Village is full service but has that quaint small-town vibe. Skiing, snowshoeing, guided snowmobile rentals, and snowboarding are offered. Group and private ski lessons are accessible for

children and adults. Daycare at the Kid Center makes this resort perfect for the whole family. Or meet up with your group at the top of the mountain, in the Summit House, for fine dining while enjoying panoramic views at an elevation of 6,817 feet. For more information visit this website: https:// skiwhitefish.com.

Discovery Ski Area near Phillipsburg, Montana, offers a wide range of skiing opportunities for the beginner to the expert skier. The front face of the mountain has the perfect gentle runs but also tougher grades to challenge the more advanced skier. They also have adaptive ski equipment for certain types of disabilities. Explore what more this resort has to offer here: https://www.skidiscovery.com/themountain/.

Discover the skiing possibilities at Lookout Pass Ski & Recreation Area near Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. This area boasts some of the best snowfall in the region. Seniors are not to be left out as Lookout Pass has group activities, meetups, and workshops for the 55+

Snow is Not Synonymous with Slow the Fun

Skiing Whitefish Mountain with views of Glacier

crowd. You can find out more on their website: https://skilookout.com.

Also worth exploring is 49° North Mountain Resort near Newport, Washington. Not only can you find skiing and snowboarding but snowshoeing through the wooded trails provides a closer peek into nature and wildlife in the wintertime. The unique activity of skate skiing is also offered at 49° North Mountain Resort. Find out more by referring to this site: https://www.ski49n.com/ mountain-services/nordic-center.

Big Sky Resort in Montana offers distinctive experiences for the winter sports adventurist. Ski the slopes of the Andesite Mountain under the light of the moon and stars aided with a headlamp, experience firstclass Nordic skiing trails, or enjoy an ethereal walk through the Enchanted Forest by the glow of lights carefully positioned along the forest trail. Additional information can be found on the website: https://www. bigskyresort.com/winter-activities.

Activities at Schweitzer Mountain near Sandpoint, Idaho, add a twist to the usual commotion on the snow: tubing. Hermit’s Hollow is a park dedicated to tubers sliding downhill for over 100 yards. And you don’t have to walk back uphill; you get pulled back up to the top! Schweitzer also has a Kids Night Out, night skiing, backcountry tours, and daytime activities for children that help make this the perfect winter destination for families. Check this site for additional information: https://www.schweitzer. com/to-do/winter-activites/.

ICE FISHING:

Getaway into the Serene Ice fishing is an escape enjoyed by many ice fishing devotees. Those seeking to catch ‘the big one’ should try the following top ice fishing spots: Noxon Reservoir in Montana, Priest Lake in Northern Idaho, and Lake Oahe in North Dakota.

SNOWSHOEING:

Encountering Nature Up Close and Personal

Snowshoeing unlocks the mystic beauty of winter like no other. Explore the awe and wonder of winter land by traversing trails through Glacier National Park, Montana, or the trails of the Shoshone National Park near Cody, Wyoming. Snow-dusted trees, mind-blowing vistas, and unsullied wilderness scenes await the snowshoer in an up close and personal fashion. Opportunities abound in viewing and photographing the wildlife of deer, elk, bighorn sheep, and moose along the numerous trails throughout Shoshone National Park.

HIKING:

Dedicated Hikers Take Delight on the Snow-Covered Trails Hikers no longer must sit the long winter out as there are hikes

available that don’t require a lot of special winter gear. Trails in the Rattlesnake Wilderness of Missoula, Montana, give hikers access to peaceful and solitary walks along undisturbed paths. It is wise to bring your cramp-ons, trekking poles, and/or snowshoes as winter trails are often covered in ice and snow. Mineral Ridge National Recreation Trail near Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, offers amazing views of Lake Coeur d’Alene as well as panoramas of the icy, frozen landscape from the vistas dotted along the trails. This trail is 3.3 miles out and back with elevation gain of 700 feet. Every winter from November-February, over 200 bald eagles migrate to the area. An interpretive viewing program during peak migration is offered from December 27-December 31.

A Hunt to RemembeR

Story and photos by Curtis Cotten

When asked to contribute a hunting story to this issue of Clearwater Properties Magazine, I knew it was meant to be. Hunting is my true calling and passion. Few animals escape my keen eye and sixth sense, attributes given to a man whose sole purpose on this earth is to hunt. At an early age my father nicknamed me Fudd, after Elmer Fudd the cartoon character, because I never miss an opportunity to take a shot. Of a lifetime of hunts to talk about, one especially notable hunt took place when I was in high school.

One hot summer day, my father, Howard, my brother, Chris, and I were working on the underbelly of Chris’ old ’77 Chevy pick-up truck. We were replacing the transmission and performing our annual tune-up for another round of hunting in the woods. Chris, a senior in high school, apparently had been planning his future while we worked. He suddenly climbed out from underneath the truck promising to be right back and said, “There’s something I need to do.”

He returned shortly and walked up to my dad and I who were still hard at work under the truck. Without hesitation Chris said proudly and nervously, “I just joined the Marine Corps.”

I’ll never forget the sound of Dad’s tools dropping as he slid out from beneath the truck, radiating pride and fear simultaneously; feelings I didn’t fully understand until I became a father.

The day came I had to give my big brother a hug goodbye as he left for boot camp. I remember thinking how strange my life would be without him and wondered when I would see him again.

Time passed quickly and before we knew it, hunting season, the most exciting time of the year was approaching. With Chris still at boot camp, Dad and I were

devising plans for every possible scenario we would encounter, as well as caring for rifles, cleaning and sighting them in to make sure they were on target. But this year there was one less rifle and for the first time since I could remember Chris would not be with us on opening day. We felt the absence of Chris in a big way and the level of excitement was lacking compared to previous years. Despite our longing for it to be the three of us together, it didn’t completely dampen our excitement at the prospect for what the season promised.

The first few weeks of the season were spent scouting out new areas and simply spending time in the woods. It felt like a big pause button had been pushed; there wasn’t much shooting, a big change from the customary, and we had little to add to the freezer. Chris returned from boot camp

on a short leave with one week left in the season. We decided to focus solely on Chris’ success as we didn’t know how long it would be before he could hunt again.

While I attended school during the week, Dad and Chris hunted in the area we hunted every year, an area plentiful with whitetails. At last, Dad spotted a deer hidden among the thick trees––it was a legal buck. Chris aimed, squeezed the trigger and brought the buck down with a clean shot. But this was no ordinary buck; it was fully mature with kickers on each side, and substantially larger than Chris had ever harvested. It seemed to me this was my brother’s reward after 13 grueling weeks of boot camp.

Saturday morning finally arrived when I could join the hunt. I had some big shoes to fill but I was going to outdo my brother although there was little time to do it. We loaded the truck up before dawn and headed east onto the interstate toward our normal hunting grounds. Without warning, Dad came to a complete stop in the middle of the highway then steered the truck toward the west. Surprised and confused we questioned him, but he simply stated he was trying something new. On the way we devised our plan of attack to assure no one would get lost and we strategized how to maximize our chances.

It was pitch black when we arrived. It was my favorite time of the year––late fall. The crisp cold morning air filling our lungs added to the excitement and anticipation of what the day before us held. While we waited for the sun to rise, signaling the legal time to hunt, we planned and agreed Dad would drive the truck back down the road where he could see the openings and wait for us to hike back out to him.

Chris and I climbed to the flattest area at the top of a ridge. I wasn’t in as good of shape as Chris, who had spent weeks working out in boot camp, but he hurried me along. Once we reached the crest it took me a few minutes to catch my breath and the sun to rise. The sun finally completed its rise over the hilltops, and I had partially recovered when Chris harshly demanded, “Dude, let’s get going!”

We hadn’t gone but a few steps when we heard rustling from below us and we crouched into position in silence. We spotted two whitetail bucks chasing and fighting for the kingship over the females entering the rutting season. I secretly gloated proud as a peacock that Chris would have to watch me get one because he had filled his deer tag and couldn’t shoot this time. But in that moment of hesitation came a slight breeze bringing the faint whiff of an elk. Suddenly the prospect of satisfying a deer tag didn’t hold a candle to bagging

the almighty wapiti, also known as elk. Watching the bucks lumber off into the woods without a shot fired went against every fiber of my soul, but we couldn’t risk scaring away the elk.

Chris was happy to become a participant and not the silent witness that he was a few seconds prior. We followed the scent as quietly as we could and found the elk tracks, confirming we made the right decision. We followed it quite a long while and we were about to quit because we thought we had missed the elk, or it got wind of our scent. Suddenly Chris dropped to his knees and fired his 300 Weatherby, which rang out with a violently loud burst. I stopped in my tracks confused as to what was happening. He yanked me by the shirt and pulled me down so I could see what he was seeing. But all I saw was a lone elk calf on top of the ridge, which we didn’t have a tag for. I accused him of making a terrible mistake, thinking he had gotten buck fever, and the excitement had got

the best of him. But he denied it and repeatedly insisted he shot a bull and was certain he had hit it. We looked high and low in the area that was open where a bull elk would have been easily seen. Eventually, we stood up to begin looking for a blood trail when five or six steps later came a 5-point bull out of the brush running up the hill.

“That’s him! That’s the one I shot! Get him Curtis, what are you waiting for? Shoot!”

A part of me wanted Chris to get his elk tag but a bigger part of me wasn’t going to let this chance slip away. We each took a knee, opposite sides of a pine tree. The bull hesitated and slowed for a brief pause. Chris with his 300 Weatherby and I with my Browning 338 Winchester aimed and fired simultaneously hitting our mark. The sting and ringing in my ears as both rifles fired is a moment I will never forget.

The bull flipped, slid a bit downhill and lay dead. We had done it! And together as brothers to boot. The exhilaration had us jumping up and down like little kids and the joy we felt was inexpressible. It was a moment that could never be timed more perfectly and can never be repeated.

The wonder and the awe of getting our first bull in precisely synchronized time melted quickly as we realized the enormity of the task ahead. We managed to flag Dad down and began the challenge of getting the elk into the bed of the truck. It was no small feat, but we figured out a way that entailed the elk sliding down the hill. Dad and Chris were in the front dragging while I was the anchor in the back. It didn’t quite go to plan, and it felt like a game of cat and mouse as the elk and I took turns passing each

other down the hill. Beyond the truck was a big hole, and if our prize had gone into it, we would have been unable to retrieve it. But our efforts and ingenuity saved the day.

The pride we felt that day driving through town with the bull elk in the truck bed is indescribable. The ultimate shared experience with my brother can’t be outdone. That Christmas, our parents surprised us with identical gold rings made from the elk’s ivories and adorned with Montana sapphires. We not only have the memories but keepsakes as symbols memorializing the priceless experience to pass on to our children.

Chris went on to become a world-renowned Marine Body

Bearer stationed in Washington, D.C. He performed countless funeral services at Arlington Cemetery for fallen soldiers and had the honor to fire the cannons at Friday evening parades at the Washington Marine Barracks near the White House. His distinguished service included bearing the caskets of former Presidents Reagan and Ford, which garnered the attention of a local reporter who wrote an article in the Missoulian Newspaper.

While we have gone on to hunt many times together throughout the years, nothing compares to the day on the ridge, a moment of providence generated by Dad’s unexpected choice to turn west and a series of split-second decisions.

Custom gold & ivory ring Dad gifted his sons.

PRONGHORN IN THE SNOW

StoryandphotosbyDianaRupp

The thermometer on the dashboard of the truck read 14 degrees. About four inches of fresh snow covered the vast expanse of sage flats. Flat-topped buttes in the distance, glittering white, were crowned with scattered blue pine trees like spearmint sprinkles on a vanilla-iced layer cake.

This was not exactly the weather I had anticipated for a pronghorn hunt in early October, which is usually a balmy time of year in eastern Wyoming. On most early season antelope hunts, the first concern after shooting an animal is getting the meat on ice immediately to cool down. At least that was not going to be a problem on this day.

The storm had blown in during the night, the high winds rocking the fifth-wheel trailer that served as an auxiliary bunkhouse for our stay at Converse County’s Tillard Ranch. As a frigid day dawned, outfitter Brad Kooiman of Xtreme Dream Outfitters served hot breakfast burritos and strong cowboy coffee in the ranch’s rustic bunkhouse kitchen, and then our group of six hunters layered up in all the wool and fleece we had brought with us and piled into several pickup trucks to begin our hunt. My hunting companions had arrived from such diverse parts of the country as Pennsylvania, California, and Virginia, all of us looking forward to a fun hunt and hoping to take home a cooler full of antelope steaks.

It’s hardly a secret that the Cowboy State is the go-to destination if you’re hoping to take a good, mature pronghorn buck on a fun, fair-chase, spot-and-stalk hunt. Wyoming is home to an estimated 400,000 antelope, more than any other state, and there are plenty of tags available. It’s also a beautiful place, and I had been admiring the magnificent wide-open spaces on either side of the highway on my drive up from Colorado when I had first seen the storm clouds gathering over the plains. I knew then that we were in for some weather that was going to make this hunt especially interesting.

The wintry setting added an extra layer of beauty to an already stunning landscape on the first morning, and the abundance of pronghorn on the ranch added to the appeal. Right off the bat, we spotted a number of nice bucks and put on a couple of stalks, but the animals were spooky, and the windy conditions, poor visibility, and periodic snow squalls added an extra level of challenge. Pronghorn are known for their wariness and incredible eyesight, which stands them in good stead on the open plains. The best plan is to find some broken country—ridges, coulees, or other breaks in the terrain—to increase the odds of making a successful stalk. The usual drill is to glass a buck from a long distance, then plan

a stalk, often detouring a long way around to take advantage of whatever cover may be on offer.

These long stalks are the fun part of antelope hunting. The not-so-fun part is dealing with Wyoming’s legendary wind. At one point during the first morning the outfitter, Brad, and I glassed a particularly nice buck as it trotted down into a steep draw—a perfect setup. Getting quietly out of the pickup, I chambered a round in the Franchi Momentum 6.5 Creedmoor rifle I carried, then closed the distance by jogging, bent over, as close to the drop-off as I could. Dropping on my belly, I wormed my way to the edge of the slope, plowing small drifts as I pushed the rifle in front of me. Through blowing snow I spotted the buck, which was feeding broadside some 250 yards below.

A lone pronghorn in the snowy sage flats of eastern Wyoming.

Wind and frigid conditions made for challenging stalking and shooting.

As frozen pellets pelted my face, I rested the rifle on a low set of shooting sticks, which rocked in the howling wind despite my best efforts to maintain a steady hold. My bullet kicked up a puff of snow a foot to the right of the antelope’s chest, and he whirled and vanished down the draw. Chastened, I got to my feet, slinging my rifle on my shoulder and stuffing my nearly frozen fingers deep into my jacket pockets to warm them. I staggered sideways in the swirling squall on the hike back to the truck.

That evening, our group compared notes over a hearty meal of steaks and baked potatoes in the bunkhouse kitchen. Just one hunter out of six of us had scored, making an impressive 300-yard shot in a stiff crosswind and dropping a nice buck. The rest of us had seen plenty of antelope, but had been unable to get within range or had been, like me, flummoxed by the wind. We hoped for better weather conditions on the morrow.

We got our wish, as the weather improved dramatically on the second day. While it was overcast and still windy (this was Wyoming, after all), the storms had passed and the temperature climbed steadily. Brad was guiding me again today, and by late morning, we were glassing several distant bucks feeding in the lee of a tall bluff. We watched them for nearly an hour from across the valley, waiting to see if they would move off or stay where they were. They seemed relaxed and not inclined to go far, so we decided to make a stalk. Leaving the truck, we hiked in a mile-wide half-circle to stay well out of the bucks’ line of sight, dropping into a sage flat cut with shallow, jagged watercourses. We crossed the flat well to the east of the bucks, and then made the climb up onto the bluff behind them, coming into a copse of scattered pines above where we had last seen them.

As we snaked our way through the pines, a large antelope that had been bedded under the shelter of the trees leaped up, almost at our feet, and sprinted to the top of a pointed bluff, where he stood for a moment, magnificently skylined, tall black horns set off against the blue sky. I had dropped to a

kneeling position when he flashed past me and now had him dead to rights, but I knew I couldn’t ethically take the skyline shot. I watched through the scope as he regarded us briefly, then dropped down the opposite side of the bluff and vanished. I looked ruefully at Brad, who just grinned and shook his head. The copse of trees was the last place either of us had expected to see an antelope.

We continued on, creeping quietly out to the edge of the trees, relieved to discover the group of bucks we had glassed initially was feeding in the open below us, not far from where we had last seen them. After some leopard-crawling to get beyond the trees, we squirmed and belly-crawled through the snowy sage to the cusp of the hill where we could look down.

Four bucks were below us, feeding calmly, about 170 yards away. Two of the bucks were very nice. Brad suggested I shoot the one with the taller horns, but I focused on the other one, which had particularly large cutters. “I like that one,” I said.

“He’s the one you missed yesterday,” Brad said.

“I thought so,” I said. “Even better.”

Just as I was ready to touch off a shot, all four bucks abruptly bedded down. Their bodies were now hidden behind tall grass, and all I could see were the four heads sticking up, facing away from us, as they contentedly chewed their cud and regarded the valley below.

Since we could, we crawled twenty yards closer. I eased into a solid sitting position, the rifle resting on sticks. The setup was perfect, except that I had nothing to shoot at. The wind was now funneling directly down the slope toward the antelope, and I was certain they would scent us and stand up at any moment. But all four of them just lay there. The buck I wanted tipped his nose forward and appeared to doze. The contrast between the spooky, switchedon animals of the day before and this lethargic group was striking.

“You want me to make them stand up?” Brad asked.

I shook my head firmly. We were in no hurry and I didn’t want to spook them. “Give them a few minutes,” I suggested.

Ten minutes later, Brad lowered his binocular and looked over at me, one eyebrow raised. “You know, we could be here all day,” he said.

I realized he was right. The antelope appeared to have no intention of going anywhere; they seemed to have settled in, possibly for the afternoon.

“OK,” I said. “I’m ready. Go ahead.”

Brad whistled softly. The antelope ignored him. He whistled again, louder this time. Still no reaction. He lifted an arm and waved it. Two of the bucks looked back at us curiously, then went back to dozing. Brad waved two arms, then his hat. The bucks looked at him impassively. I still had the scope solidly on the pronghorn, but it was

getting harder to hold it steady as I was inwardly chuckling at Brad’s antics and the non-reaction of the antelope. It was a 180-degree turnaround from the day before, when the storm had made the animals so spooky they were practically unapproachable.

At last Brad made as if to stand up, and at that point the bucks had apparently had enough. They heaved to their feet, not seeming particularly alarmed. The buck with the nice cutters gave me a perfect broadside presentation and the 143-grain Hornady ELD-X took him right behind

the shoulder. He went less than thirty yards and piled up, shot through the heart.

As we approached the fine, fat buck, the sun came out and shone down on us from a blue sky. As I knelt beside the antelope to pay my respects and admire his curving horns and long, thick prongs, I had to shed my outer jacket. Brad shook my hand and I thanked him for leading us on a perfect stalk. I notched my tag, and we took pictures of the buck in the rapidly melting snow.

WYOMING

The land of wide-open spaces and rough and tumble lifestyle is calling you. Wyoming is yet another example of an outdoor recreation lover’s utopia. Besides the obvious tourist attraction that is Yellowstone National Park, visitors from around the world come to experience Wyoming’s rich history. Famous outlaws like Butch Cassidy hid out in its small towns between train robberies, and much of the untouched landscape remains reminiscent of the Wild West. Unrivaled hunting, fishing and wildlife viewing are around every corner. Today, Wyoming has the smallest population of all the states, with just over 586,000 permanent residents.

There are 30 National Parks on 19,700 square miles of this lush, tropical paradise.

And did we mention the 800 miles of pristine, black, pink and white sand beaches, laid-back locals and perfect weather? Whether you are looking for a second home to escape from it all or an investment opportunity, Costa Rica is the ultimate destination of luxurious living and relaxation..
