Upland Season is Coming!

Fall is a season of passion and acute, outdoor sensations. A chill fills the air, trees dress in sudden blaze orange and autumn ambers. I live for the crackle of a woodstove fire. The time of year when I pack the truck to hunt. My favorite shotguns, my old canvas vest and plenty of red shells. I am an upland hunter. I am also a storyteller. Those two collide every fall and lead me to adventures in both the woods and on the prairie. It’s time to go bird hunting….Supported by: North Dakota Tourism (https://www.legendarynd.com/,) Minnesota Historical Society (https://www.mnhs.org/fortsnelling,) Hewitt Docks, Lifts & Pontoon Legs (https://www.hewittrad.com/,) Kinetico (https://www.kinetico.com/,) Minnesota Propane Association “Clean American Energy” (https://propane.com/) Star Bank (https://www.starbank.net/) & Grain Belt Premium (https://www.grainbelt.com)
