Show Notes

People who seriously hunt western upland game birds are tough, and Matt Hardinge is the kind of guy who can handle pain and suffering. Chasing a chukar thousands of vertical feet up a canyon, only to have it fly back down before you catch up, is a lesson in patience and endurance. Not only is Matt chasing chukar in Hells Canyon, but he's also successfully hunting the toughest bird out there, the Himalayan snowcock. With the only U.S. population living in the Ruby Mountains of Nevada, these birds are reputed to be the most elusive game on earth. In this episode, Matt gives me some tips on how to hunt them, and how you can learn more about this fascinating species.
