Have to say I just got back from the best hunt I've ever had. 7 days hunting with my 10 year old son and my dad. 3 generations hunting together. This was my son's first major trip and he was my main focus all week. He had a blast. The true essense of the hunt was brought home. It ain't about score. It's truely about the hunt. Sleeping in the walltent, cooking meals over a fire, the kids shooting cans with the .22, being in some of the best scenery the world has to offer, seeing the excitement in a boy's eyes when he kills his first grouse, sharing the fire with family and friends. Man that is what it is all about. We saw plenty of wildlife like whiteys, muleys, mountain goats, black bears, lynx and even managed to see a grizz. I left him up on the mountain for a future upcoming solo trip.
My opening day whitey (5X4) taken on Sept 10th. It was a father and son team effort. Cody spotted it and I was able to put him on the ground. He's going to be some great vension. Cooked up his tenderloins over the fire and man was it ever good.
My dad's 6x4 dropper meatbuck taken the second morning of hunt. Dad has a serious heart condition and can't hunt like he used to so it sure was awesome to see him hammer this buck. This too, will be some great vension. The buck was plum full of blueberries.
Cody's first grouse. Damn it sure makes a father proud.
Cookin' grouse over the fire.

These pics are just off the video camera. I'm sure I have much better ones on the 35mm. I'll post up more when I get the pics developed.
