OK, maybe it'll be a tough contest. I don't have many "camp" pics. But, let's see what you all have.

This is one from a few years back in Wyoming. Paul's buck is laying there.

Don't have many pictures either of camps over the years but found these in scrap book of a Deer & Elk hunt in the Greys River back in Oct. 1992.
This first picture was at the Main camp in Moose Flat Camp Ground area in 1992.

This one is of the Spike Camp we made during this same time up on the side of a mountain to the west of Greys River about a 5 mile pack in I believe we figure to get there. Spent three days up there till we ran out of our dinner meals, Mountain Home Freeze Dried Dinners and what water we were able to pack in up there....slim pickins for the 3 days but had a blast even though we got nothing up there. I am holding up my DINNER for that evening...LOL

Doesn't seem like it has been 18 years since then, time sure flys by when your having fun.

I needed another pic before packing up muzzleloader camp. I wish I could say I shot him where the pic is instead it was a "gruling" 500 yards away from camp.

(Deer Camp in 1994)- But how I miss the hunts of youth or my younger days. Even these pics are not so clear, but Oh, the memories! I long ago got rid of my horse, and in this one, I was letting my son do the riding (I'm the orange guy with the gaiters). Also, on this particular hunt, my boy got his first buck. I lost my lifelong huntin' buddy (Dad in 2009...he was 87...he was on this hunt, along with several others who have moved on to better hunts or "honey holes") This was in the Ruby Mountains, snow piled up a foot and a half... we had to chain up rigs and walk horses into camp... first blood forkies, we all sat around the campfire in a blizzard eating fresh venison liver & onions w/ Dutch Oven biscuits...what I'd give to be there for only a moment!

Here's a picture of my Great-granddad and Great-Great-Granddad from 1944. I never met these guys, they both passed before I came along. Sure would have been fun to share this camp with them!

I can tell you this with assurety, even though we never met, I do what I do in large part because of these men! They were avid outdoorsmen and it's been a strong influence through many family generations.

Six generation later and you can still see their legacy coming through in my young son. Now that's what camp?n is all about! So there ya go, coolest camp pic ever, almost 70 years ago?

This is "Base Camp" on my Colorado archery elk hunt. My wife joined me on this hunt so it was nice having the cab-over for her to stay in while Dustin and I slept on the mountain. We would stay one or two nights on the mountain then return for a shower and a fresh meal. The wife really enjoyed base camp, it was only 20 miles from a small town (shopping). She had a cow and calf moose visit her daily while we were gone. The best part was the view!

Here is the spike camp strapped to my back. Most nights we would roll out the sleeping bags in an area like this one. Luckily we had nice weather and didn't have to use a tent, just a sleeping bag under the stars and elk bugles to sing me to sleep.

Here are a few of my hunting camp memories.


This trip was in the Madison Range in Montana.
My folks had bought a new two man tent just for this trip. When we unpacked the "tent" the only thing in the bag was some strips of fabric and half of one pole. They made due with a lean-to made from a piece of plastic and some limbs. It got down to -20 at night ! We had to pack my bull 9 1/2 miles back to the truck. Great trip ! Notice all the cool camo we wore.
