can't speak for any of the colonies up here. My folks live down near Claresholm and dad deals with the Granum colony quite a bit. We bring our hides, we get gloves. We bring in whole yotes, they give us 1/2 the market value of the finished pelt. They've also fixed shoes and boots for us and have slipped the odd turkey, jars of jam etc into the back of the truck.
Every time I get down there with the youngin's, we visit and they show us the new lambs or the new litters of pups that they always seem to have. My wife is obsessed with Great Pyrenees dogs so she gets her fix, sometimes for hours on end. Great folks on that colony for sure.
We have access to hunt gophers, coyotes and deer on their HUGE tract of land in the foothills on the west side of Hwy 2.
