Awesome post...thanks for sharing. No sightings or issues with wolves, bear, or coyotes?

It's called the Sparhawk Cabin, I should have included this picture of it too with his name.

Forgive me if I missed it, what gun/caliber did you use?

.30-06, plain Jane I know. You’re a gun nut so I’ll elaborate.

Nothing wrong with a proven old school caliber like that

Nope. My Dad ran cattle in SW Wyoming for years, but this is in central Wyoming near Martin's Cove and Independence
