Tom,

Did you get your mount back from your BQ4 trophy?  I was wondering if you went with the full body mount you were thinking about...

Great stories, all y'all!

We were looking for a bear that got ventilated B. That was as fun a tracking job as I ever was on. Boring at first but as it got out there 200 or 300 yards it got interesting, down on hands and knees, you could see what the bear was thinking at that level. The tracking is much more fun than sitting in the tree. Of course watching this little red tree rats get jacked up on Ho Ho's and Ding Dongs does have it's moments.

Hi Daryl

Almost...ALMOST as good as being there, getting to read thru the stories, the banter, seeing the pictures...

It is always such a treat to come here and experience your hunts vicariously!

Thank you all for sharing!  Excellent!!!

and like this pic inside the relay station its up the road about 35 km away from the camp.They have a small grill in the back and sell some supplies.But I was wondering why these 3 BQ members seemed to always be full after a bait run.Geezus I thought they were eating those nasty old donuts.But no I busted them on a trail cam we have behind the bar at the relay station .... notty notty boys bd

Probably had uncontrollable "munchies" after the brownies - they are still trailing after images or maybe you need a new trail cam.

I'm pretty sure there's some distortion in that photo because of a warped camera lens or something. UB
