I was up there yesterday pulling the last of my stands down and doing a little scouting. Saw lots of deer sign and several deer.

anyone that has made this hunt will recognize this camp fire less the snow of course.

I've been hunting this one ridge for over 15 years now. This is one of the original blazer tacks I had used to mark the trail going up to my stand location.

This is the view from up on the ridge I have had much success on. Got nicknamed "Rob's Roost" many years ago.

This is the bathing hole. Nothing like a nice long COLD bath after a few days of hunting.

ttt just in case anyone missed it....
The wife has several interviews down in Charlottesville in a couple of weeks. If we're moved down by then, I'd love to join ya in camp. I usually hunt over in Bath Co. with some buddies, but I'm always looking for new places and new faces.
Kevin, I live 15 mins from Charlottesville. Look me up if you end up down here.
I'd love to make the RMR hunt...maybe this year!!

TTT...just wanted to bring this one back up to the top for a few days since we are getting close.
I had planned to join you guys last year, but was unable to go. Ive been looking forward to making it happen this year.
Josh hope you can make it. Should be a really great year.
For those of you who are thinking about coming check in on the Virginia Thread for updates. I will be headed up to Bath in the next few weeks to do some scouting if anyone is interested.
Alright I have off Oct. 20-30th If'n my Ex works with me on child care I think I will be able to make it this year..... Got to talk real sweet I guess.
Rob are we still camping in the same place as the 1st Annual RMR or did you guys move some??? And does anyone have the camp site marked with their GPS??? Can't seem to find my map from afew years back??
