Big game hunters in Colorado can get an early start on ‒ from the comfort of their homes. By going on-line to the Colorado Hunting Atlas, a special feature on the Colorado Parks and Wildlife website, hunters can do some virtual scouting of areas they want to hunt. 

“The Word of God is quick and powerful and sharper than any two edged sword….a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12

IT'S ONLY BUSINESS 

“The LORD abhors dishonest scales, but accurate weights are his delight.” Proverbs 11:1

Continued hot and mostly dry conditions will continue across most of Colorado to start the work week, though a few showers may be possible for the eastern half of the state.

Eastern Colorado

Temperatures will mainly be in the mid-80s for eastern Colorado Sunday. A cold front will be moving through the eastern part of the state from late morning through the early afternoon. Expect a few afternoon and evening storms over the higher elevations producing light to moderate rain and a potential for wind gusts to 40 miles per hour.

Colorado State University (CSU) Extension and the Colorado Corn Administrative Committee (CCAC) are inviting corn farmers and others interested to attend the upcoming Corn Field Day near Holyoke.  

The event is set for 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 30, taking place about 10 miles south of Holyoke on U.S. 385. (From U.S. 385, go west on County Road 2 -- also listed as County Road 60 -- for 2 1/4 miles, and then turn south on the trail at that location.)

These days, most of us are dependent, to some extent, on our cell phones. While service can be non-existent or, at best, sketchy in remote areas, emergency rescue experts suggest that hunters carry their phones with them in the field. 

Have you ever found yourself walking around only to look up at just the right moment before you slam into a wall or another person?  Who knew walking could be so dangerous?
