But I really want to share this old man...


During the tail end of the late ML elk season and while forcing my way through the snow we encountered this old man - could not resist getting some pictures and now the urge to share,,











It appears that he had been in the woods longer than I but. was just as frustrated with the lack of elk as I was. I did not talk to him so I really do not know his thoughts - his looks just said it all...

Those are springboard holes cut by loggers.

Great pictures Sabotloader. Ah, the good old days. What those guys wouldn't have given for a chainsaw. I wonder how long it took them to cut a tree like that. How many strokes of the saw?

You can bet the only soft spot on them boys was their tongues! Imagine the workout!! Upper body, Core, lower (balancing on those spring boards would be a thigh and calf killer)
