Little Feet's Chair

Little Feet is an 80yo man who has a camp near us.  When we first started hunting in our area, we would always run into his little feet prints.  There was seemingly nowhere you could go where Little Feet hadn't already been.  Just when you thought you had gotten to a secluded, far away spot...... there were Little Feet's tracks.  We met him after a few years of calling him Little Feet and the name stuck.  Now we all just call him Feet. Now that he's older, we don't see his tracks like we used to.  He pretty much hunts his chair now out back of his camp a little ways up the mountain.

Most are easy to figure out why.
High Back
Fied Stand
No Name
Trail Stand
Old Mans Stand. This one got its name because my late Uncle took a kitchen chair to the top of the hill behind his house 20/25 years ago. Shot a nice ten point and never brought the chair back home. The rusted frame is about 20 yards from the stand. Feels special every time I hunt here.

Hmmm never really contemplated the stand names we use but they have become common knowledge around the campfire at what has become our little camp (The Broken Arrow Lodge) which consists of some old military surplus gear and what ever we find comfortable to bring along.

Five Fingers (five little fingers of varying cover come together at this point)

14 Point blind (yeah one member of our party saw this toad!)

Ivy Tree (you guessed it, one bad case of poison ivy hanging this stand)

Barbs Blind (dont argue with momma she shot a deer there and by gods its her blind now)

8 Point blind (seems like anyone can take an 8 point from this blind)

River Bottom (no explanation needed)

The Beer Tree (former hunter on the property had approximately 8 silver bullet cans at the bottom of this tree and as many stuffed into a hollow in the tree.  Kinda makes you wonder were they really there to hunt or just to hide a drinking problem?)

There are more but they havent really earned names at this point.

[Whitetail Chaser]

Lazy Man's Canyon - close to the road
Four Pines - self explanatory
The Pitchy Pine - (1 ruined shirt)
The Big Tree
The kid's stand - kid missed an elk from here
Elk Stampede Stand - very noisy at times
Rattlesnake - NOT a good way to find a stand name


I've got more in my brain somewhere.
