First Hunting Trip of the Year

This is the guy that I went up the mountain to try and find. He hasn't been around for several months,but I was kind of hoping to come across him. The weather was not good with lots of cloud, fog and high humidity.


I walked and rattled for 4 hours,but never saw a thing. None of the tracks were new and the walking was tough with about 6 inches of crusty snow on the ground.
I would like to see just how big that rack grew over the summer. Next time out, I will head for lower areas on the mountain. I doubt that anybody got him in bow season, as he is pretty wily. there are no current pictures as the day was really gloomy.

    I remember these pics. What a shame you couldn't track him down and surprise us with a winter white glow around this beautiful fella.

    well have a happy day.
    Hugs Dagmar

    Deer are one of my favorite animals. They are so magnificent and graceful. I hope your deer is just busy being a big beautiful buck somewhere where he has his little flock of does.
