For Montana hunters the long wait is nearly over...

Sage hen, mountain grouse, sharp-tailed grouse and Hun seasons open tomorrow, September 1 while...
...mule deer bucks such as this one, along with elk and antelope become targets September 3, as the Montana bird and bow seasons are here at last.
Annie the wirehair and your reporter will of course kick off the bird season early tomorrow morning...As is our tradition we will kick things off hunting mountain grouse high up in one of the surrounding mountain ranges; unless someone beats us to it we will hunt a particular spot where in the past we have found both blue grouse and Huns...how sweet is that, right!

Unlike some openers tomorrow's forecast is for cooler than normal temperatures (winter storm warning for the Glacier Park high country...true story, really!) so if true we should get in several hours before the sun bakes us, ends the party. But hunting season is at last here and...Well hell, hot, cold, whatever, tis onward and upward from here, eh?
