Wow! Great hunt guys! Congrats to all! I finally just read all the way through it. Amazing hunt so far. Can't wait to see what happens on the last day, something seems to always happen on the last day at last light    :campfire:

P.S. Terry what's the story on the knife you used to gut your hog? Sorry if I missed the story.

Forgot to tell about the knife...its a Doug Campbell ...I asked him to make it for me...kinda like a camp knife pretty big and meaty...not really best for gutting and skinning but it will get the job done....heck, you can even gut a hog with a broadhead if you forget your knife.  Yep, done that too.   :rolleyes:

Also...Michael, as always...thanks for the fine meal....that is always a real treat.  We even enjoyed it for lunch the next day...and with our pork loin the next evening.  Yes, the pork loin was fresh, not frozen.    :D

OK...I guess its OK...haven't chatted with Curt today....to get to the next morning.

We corned...and that was an adventure in itself...the 4 wheelers tires went about half flat and I sure didn't want to have a tire pop off the rim and leave it stranded...so we took a chance, with the wet road and all the rain the property took the week before and had a go with a 2 wheel drive truck I'd hauled everything down with.

All was good till we got to Rob's stand to turn around and the long bed, as I suspected, was too long to turn around in the road...that truck has a TERRIBLE turning radius.  So, I had to back up and get a running start across a ditch and get to higher ground and turn around in the opening on the other side of the feeder....

It was hairy, but I made it...after getting the truck turned around with a bit more spinning I had to get back across with less speed.  So, I headed for the same ruts as before.  Curt had checked the ruts I'd made and it was somewhat hard bottom, and we thought it was best to hit them again as to not have to push mud out of the way making new ones....which would have loss speed.  I was so relieved when I was back on the other side of that ditch let me tell ya.....Then we corned our way out.

I decided to take pics and video this morning and not 'guide' as this was the last morning and I wanted to get some pics and footage of Curt and Cade together....what was to follow was an entire morning of stalking the WHOLE length of the 'Killer Kilometer'.  It started at Wood's stand and didn't end all the way to Rob's stand.  What a morning!!!!

Curts got a lot of pics and videos and I'm not sure how far along he is with them since they were to be delivered today UPS....
