ManLife Historic Old Deer Camps

I wish I had pictures from my old man's elk hunts in Idaho. There would be at least 30 elk strung up. But don't worry. They all got eaten.

 

Idaho makes for great hunting because they have "hills" instead of "mountains." You can easily shoot across a canyon. It still takes a four wheeler to get em out though.

 

My old man hunted with locals he knew through the Navy. They would hunt the entire month of October. The locals knew where the clear cuts had been made and thus where the elk would come down to party. As they got older, hunt camp turned into more and more an excuse to fiddle diddle around. But, trust me, the locals had full freezers.
