Prairie dogs in Medicine Bow WY

[Ironworker]

I've made contact with an outfitter for Prairie dogs in Medicine Bow WY. Maybe that's where is headquarters is. Are there Prairie dogs out that way?

We had a good shoot right across the tracks from "town" a few yrs ago. They installed a pile of eyesight sore windmills, didnt see any there near them? Hopefully your outfitter has a sweet spot.

Probly. They are everywhere. i have never ventured that far. So can't say. It's all checkerboard with private. I am guessin it may be a private land hunt. I lived in Capser when I was a kid and hunted Shirley Basin, which is /was all BLM and open. I's a ways north of Medicine Bow.

Ive hunted that Medicine Bow country for deer, elk , antelope but I never paid any attention to the prairie dogs. Ibet theyve got em. I was always in the M.B. national forest. Doug

Satellite photos show colonies scattered around the area. Some look like plague hit, but that happens.

From medicine bow head north to Shirley basin. 487 and left on 77 and watch for towns. Half of 77 is closed during winter but any other time it’s several miles of towns. Didnt go last year but have done a lot of shooting in that area. If you spot the teenage looking game warden out there- ask him where the good spots are for pd. Very helpful and he may take you to sweet spots !
