South of Boise out Pleasant Valley Rd towards the tank range. Be prepared to see lots of folks both shooting and riding dirt bikes.

Yeah, it's getting a lot busier out there, dammit.  More people leaving their crap behind, too.

I always pick up my trash and then some. Try to leave it better than you found it!

Me, too.  Unfortunately, we seem to be in the minority.

Sooo....went out piggin again this afternoon and came home with a story that I gotta share. I was using my Ruger 77/22 to good effect and was retrieving my kills and piling them up near my truck to keep a tally of the damage. Now the ground squirrel's propensity towards cannibalism is legendary but I had no idea how far they would go until today. On one trip out to retrieve a kill I found the little fellow partially eviscerated. It appeared he had crawled a foot or two after being shot and had strung his innards out over several inches. I picked him up by the tail and started walking back to the truck when I discovered that he had not expired. He was gathering up his guts with his fore paws and munching on them. I dropped him in disgust and finished him with my pistol while he attempted to consume his own viscera. Ick!
