First day was a bust. It rained pretty hard all day and at around 2:30 the clouds started breaking up so we went out for a hunt. Grace was working really well and was doing everything right but we got no points and no flushes in a two hour hunt. They must have stayed in the trees all day. Along about 4:30 the skies opened up and we were almost a mile from the truck. We called it quits at that point.
We’ll see what today brings...
This is the camp (built in ‘54) in the old days around ‘83 I think. The stone house in the background was built in the late 70’s and the new camp in the second picture we started building in ‘96.
