Welcome to Basin & Range Outdoors

Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure... than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat. ~Theodore Roosevelt

Basin & Range Outdoors was created to share the adventures experienced by two brothers in the American West. From the highest alpine terrains to the lowest sonoran deserts we will chronicle the pain and triumph that accompanies all of our outdoor pursuits.

There will be no high-fence hunts, no fly fishing lodges, no streamside caviar and wine breaks. Instead, you can expect cold nights sleeping in the dirt, flat tires on old trucks, and big dreams realized on small budgets. With Basin & Range Outdoors you will find useful reviews of hunting and fly fishing products, techniques, locations, and a general review of our outdoor expeditions on public land.

Hunting Collared Peccary in Arizona's Sonoran Grassland

by: Bryce Bare
After a tough vertical hike through jagged rock, prickly pear, ocotillo, catclaw acacia, and shin-daggers, we made it to our perch and prepared to put the binoculars to work. The previous two days we spent getting beat down by wind, sleet and snow; so to get to our glassing position in relatively calm weather with the sun starting to crest the far-off Whetstone Mountains made the thorns feel small and the hill flat.
