Nothing for me. Not unexpected since I have few or no points in anything I could reasonable be expected to draw. Now the long wait until FCFS starts. Hopefully I can snag a deer tag like last year.
It totally depends on the weather. If we get an early winter with good snow up high they’ll be down into their winter range between Carson and the Reno area. If we get a late winter with not much snow yet they’ll still be in California.
Find the shed. Lol.
I took this from the road walking back from Saturday‘s hike. About 10,000 side by sides have passed by here and at least half that many 4X4s since it was shed. I walked by about 20 yards on the other side a couple weeks ago. In my defense I was coming back after hiking all...
Not a shed, this one broke off. I found a mostly complete broken one last year too. This one had some velvet left on when it broke. You can still see remains of the skin on one tine.
My Sister and BIL were hiking along the top of Copper Mtn in the Jarbidge area when my dog slid about 100 yards down the hill on a snow bank (on purpose. He loved to snow slide) and scared up this one.
The last one I saw was this last December. I walked around a point and on the next point...
I had fun with the FCFS site. I even snagged one. My luck we had record snow fall and I couldn’t get to where the deer winter on the mountain above my house. I’m not sure they were even there this year with the snow. I went east and discovered some new areas which was fun. I didn’t get a deer...
Too much snow still where I usually hike so I went east to check out a new place. I found the 1st 5 within about 40 yards of each other. 6 about 50 yards beyond and 7-8 about another 50 yards farther. The back half of the knoll is still in snow so hopefully more there. I hadn’t taken my pack so...
Lots of snacks, short hikes and planting a few keeps things going. But any bones are good, mine never really cared if it was a rib or an antler. A dog is good to have too. If no bones are showing up you can always entertain them by throwing sticks for the dog.
I’m interested to see your experience with this stove. I bought an almost new one 5 years ago. The seal started coming unattached a couple years ago and I keep forgetting to replace it so I just keep tucking it in. The stove is really well built and will run you out of the tent with not much...
