Let's play "Name that Country!"

Lets see if you can "NAME THAT COUNTRY!"
Heres a picture of one of my Glory days. This was taken about 15 years ago. The area is unaccesible by auto/atv (by laws, and because you couldn't get an atv there if you wanted to, maybe close but not where I stand.) This was our one and only over nighter on this mountain, and we picked up 76 deer sheds on this trip. The brutal 2-2 1/2 hike in to where we set up camp for the night is an understatement. This area is PUBLIC ground, although it was PRIVATE at one time. BLM did some land swapping and that is what made it public then, and now to this day.......No Cheating, so dont blow up the picture of my old high school sweat shirt! Lets here your guesses!

You packed in an ice chest and a 12 pk of pepsi?

Haha that pepsi and cooler probably added to the load...

nah..he packed 'em in on that Golden Mule Dog!

My "pepsi-aholic" friend did in deed pack that 12 pack on his back along with his gear. I did carry the cooler, which many times on our way to our destination I wanted to toss it.
Here are some more clues
There is a very large caged black bear in a small town near here.
Over looking the rim we set up camp on, we can look out and see a "Scenic Natural National Monument"
The "Pyromid" cooking stove (middle of the picture)I think the Company was based out of a town 65 miles to the west.

town 65 miles west throws out San diego.

Cedar Mountain? or NW of Zions?

The town with the Giant black bear by the gas station is Mitchell Oregon.
The Scenic Natural National Monument is "The Painted Hills." Neatly natural colored landscaped grounds.
Where I am standing is on rims on the Bridge Creek side of SUTTON MOUNTAIN in Oregon. It's very neat country.......

cool picture... dont know if I would have just told everyone where my honeyhole was. Too bad I live so far away from there.

Jwarren. (For what its worth)
I moved 500 miles from there about 6 years ago. Odd thing about that place, in the 3-4 years we shed hunted that, we found a handful of fresh. We covered all the rims on the Bridge Creek side of Sutton over that time, the stuff we found just got older as time went by...
The thing about this place is, was getting up on to the rims, so many times we would start up or down a shoot or cracks in the rocks, only to turn around and go back up or down because it was impassable. I hated and dreaded that about the hike in and out. The rims in the background of the picture are tiny to what you had to go up to get there. We found only a few in the lower grounds below the rims. We looked, but in our minds we knew it was basically a waste of time. Although on one day trip my friend and kicked my butt in numbers that day (I always found the best stuff, he usually found more) but we were down off the rims on our way out, and I knew I could never catch him, not in the foot hills on the way out. I happen to look under a tree and saw where a Chukar hunter or deer hunter had thrown down about 12 large buck antlers probably got tired of packing them! Those 10-12 were probably the most ever found down in the lower country put together. So if anyone wants to go up there they can have it. But they will probably be over on the Service Creek side of Sutton Mountain picking up elk sheds, from all the elk that has moved off the "6 shooter ranch".. ;-)
