    Well our hunt is over. It flew by as always and we had a spectacular time. Greg got a great bull. I had 3 different encounters got busted twice and passed once on a bull I wasn't 100% sure was legal. The boys caught some dandy trout and we ate like kings all week. I'll post a few pics that will pretty much sum up our week.
    2016 is in the books and plans for 2017 have been made.

    We have been pulled over twice since leaving camp by bored cops wanting to talk about the bull strapped atop the quad lol

    Time now to get home and put my youngest on his first deer then I have a speed goat hunt planned for months end before shifting my focus to whitetails.

    The season is off to a great start!

    This is a fisher that came to visit me as I was seeking shelter under a big pine during a thunderstorm. I sat and stared at me at 5 yds the entire time I got out my phone then just as I was gonna snap a pic he turned and gave me a butt pic lol

    Both of Gregs boys came up to help pack out. They were amazing! Helped us break down the bull and each hauled out loaded packs

    Looks like had a good time. Congrats on a somewhat successful trip. Been wanting to do something like that for awhile but don't have many friends around home wanting to spend that kind of money to go hunt somewhere.
