Hunting cabin

Those isolated spots not easy to find are so peaceful. It takes skis or snowshoes to get to our cabin this time of year. We snowshoed in for a couple days last week. The image below greeted us as we climbed the slope. Lately the wind has been howling, but when it's not I swear you can hear snowflakes fall in this serene draw.

I prefer Leave No Trace. It's why I haven't relocated back to Montana in my retirement and only return to visit during hunting season. I want to help it stay the same. The Flathead Valley was a great place to grow up. Looking at what it's become today breaks my heart. I see it happening to the East Side now too. You do what you want but I won't be a part of wrecking "the last best place".

You're just full of opinions, aren't you?!
 
Any trouble keeping vermin out?
We had a problem for awhile, continuously used DeCon and trapped. Then an ermine / weasel moved into a slash pile nearby and continues to rid the place of any mice.
Fortunately I had procrastinated about burning the slash pile - weasel home, so now it remains as a welcome place for the vermin predator.

This pic stays a mental image of getaway perfection....
 
Considering something like this, with maybe a 10ft on top for shower room.
