Title: Great day in the North, no Bunnies were harmed...
Post by: ron w on December 15, 2012, 06:06:00 PM
Cyclic rivers, Adirondack bowman and myself went out to see if we could kill a snowshoe rabbit today. We gave it a valiant effort but alas we came up empty. After lunch at the camp we did 2 more small hunts and turned it into a stump shoot. What a great time.....and the day was just beautiful. We saw some deer sign and jumped a few grouse, Charlie saw a great Horned owl. Just a great day!

Great picture Roger. Don't necessarily like working in it but looking forward to a few Saturday afternoon walks with Annie if we ever get a little cold and snow.

That's what most of Malcolm and my hunts turn into...first pigs, then small game, and then stumps!  Great fun! Sometimes we get a mixed bag, but mostly stumps!

I had a great time. I managed 2 quick photos. the rest of the time the camera was in the pack.  At least you can see the gorgeous weather we had in a gorgeous place.  

Ron's cabin is just over the Sacandaga river and at the base of a mountain.  You have mountain views in most directions,  an awesome place indeed, The cabin was built by a civil war vet with one leg.

I couldn't have asked for a better time with better people.   :thumbsup:
