The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

What a great story and a great hunt. I'm glad that you had a good time in Maine. I grew up about 30 minutes from Campobello, it is a beautiful part of the country. Whenever I get home to Maine I try to eat as well as you did. I love Wisconsin (especially the deer herd) but when it comes to seafood, there's no comparison. If you fly out of Portland, make sure you try a lobster roll and pumpkin ale from Linda Bean's!

Hunter gains 15 pounds!  No freezed dried food, no semi-warm instant oatmeal right out of the envelope?  And this is hunting?  Makes me want to sign up.  Thanks for the story.

Bill,  It certain was an adventure.  All the campgrounds were great.  The interesting thing is that they all had wifi.  Seems like everyplace I went in Canada, including all the campgrounds had wifi available - free.

I did purchase a lifetime US National Park pass (for those over 62) for $10 that paid for itself the first day.  I also bought an All Canada Pass that is good in all their parks - 1 year for $67 that I think drops to $55 for those over 65.

I am already thinking about going back next year as I only hit the highlites of many places I went.  Maybe a two month trip this time with another moose hunt at the end.............yeah, that's the ticket   :thumbsup:

Jeff,
I did indeed enjoy my first trip to your home area and I'm sure I'll be back again.  I only hit the highlites the first time around and would like to take more time to fish, hike, etc.  Plus, there are many more lobster that need to be eaten     :bigsmyl:
