After a long Montana winter—February 2019 was one of the coldest in the Big Sky State’s history—the onX tribe has been feeling the spring itch. We’re ready to get outside, log some miles in a non-snowy environment and just generally enjoy being out without the seemingly-mandatory five layers of winter clothing. Spring is finally here, but the season took its time arriving.

A couple days spent in turkey camp, shooting images and writing a piece for onX Hunt, was the prefect reminder that at the end of the day, it’s the little things in life that matter the most. Laugher around the campfire with friends, logging miles in big, open country and crisp early mornings waking up outside.

This week’s assignment was an entirely new subject matter—turkey hunting. Shooting for onX Hunt, I joined a couple other members of the Missoula-based onX team and headed to north-central Montana, on the edge of the famed Missouri River Breaks, to chase some turkeys.

Once at camp, we were joined by a handful of hunt-savvy folks from around Montana and Colorado, and spent a quality couple days hunting, hiking, shed hunting, fishing for catfish and just quality time around the campfire. On all good adventures, there’s always something that goes haywire, and in this case it was one of the guy’s trucks getting stuck in the mud and a morning-long rescue operation. But it made for plenty of laughs and good-natured ribbing in camp, so all was well with the world.

The images will be coming to onX channels soon, so stay tuned.
