Ptarmigan
« on: September 30, 2011, 02:11:36 PM »
Saw some last weekend of High Buck.  I was packing out and was tempted, but I didn't shoot because I wasn't sure of the following:

Are they considered grouse and legal with a big game license?

Are they legal at all?

You gotta get pics of something like that! Sweet to know there are still a few around though.
