dates set for Adirondack Attack
« on: July 02, 2007, 09:38:00 PM »
i will be holding the annual Adirondack Attack on October 6-13 this year. i will have a couple rooms, couches, floor space and land available to camp if needed. all ya need is a NY small or large game license depending on what you want to hunt. this hunt will take place on public land. i will post more again when it gets closer. i would really like to have a couple small work shop type things like basic bow building, flint knapping and things along that line. the only problem would be the time frame and if there is enough time to do these things and hunt. any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated!!

I'll Be There!!!!! Wouldn't miss it for the world!!!!!

As for the "time frame" you could teach "fire building,with flint&steel" at the evening campfire every night   :campfire:

Hey adkmountainken,

Where abouts are you in the Adirondacks? My Dad has a place near Paradox Lake where I'll be hunting the archery opener and could possibly extend my trip to hook up with you all. I grew up in western NY and used to vacation in the Adirondacks every summer. Man I love it there. Some day I'll take the plunge and get a place of my own back there. It'd be tough to leave Northern CA, but maybe I could work out a time-share situation. It'd be worth it!

Hi Tonto,

My Dad's place is off Old Furnace Road. We can probably see your mountain from the top of the cabin!

Good luck in Wyoming.

I will pencil it on the calendar. I will really try to make it. I also only start a campfire with "primitive" methods. I can get a fire going with flint and steel faster than most guys can with a match.
Hey any fishing available at that time of year there? Might want to make it a trifecta, catch a fish, shoot a squirrel and a deer all in the same day.

Ken i could make it for the 5th and 6th. What kind of small game is abundant in your parts? I'm all for if it's brown it's down or if it flies it dies.   :bigsmyl:

There are also a boat load of turkeys pecking around those woods too. I still have nightmares about those things  ;)  
Chuck, with a lil help, I can bone out and cut up about two deer an hour bud. Would be glad to get them in the freezer quick for anyone there.
