Wouldn't you know that this is the one weekend I have to hunt hard during Oct. and I come down sick on Friday night?![X(][:@] Instead of going on a two day pack in hunt I went out behind the house in some thick timber for Sat. afternoon and hitched a flight up north of here in my housemates bush plane to hike around for a couple hours in the clear cuts on Sunday. I think the only 4 legged critters we saw on the ground were 2 red squirrels. We couldn't find the elk herd we went looking for but we did scope out some goats on the way home. Man, the snow is piling up already up in the mountains! At least I'm getting this cold out of the way now and I'll be 100% when bow season for deer and goats arrives Nov. 1!!!!!!
