Trbute to a Hunter
I discovered this on a ridge above the Escanaba River in the UP. It is a cross with an old red hunting coat hung on it, a pair of boots, and hunting cap. On the metal plate is an old shell casing and hunting knife attached. It is inscribed in memory of our father( I will not print the name out of respect for the family) who hunted this ground all his life.
I found it a fitting trbute to an obvious loving family to their father. I would be proud to be remembered that way. It always sends a chill up my back when I hunt past this area, but I am sure he approves and wishes me good luck. I took 2 grouse over Betty on that hunt.
