    Rocksteady 2019 Dear Diary

    Put up trail cam and salt mid june.. lots if elk and deer first couple weeks.. coyote laid a big dump while smiling at camera.. almost 500 pics first week.. went to Dease lake to fight fire for 2 weeks.. came home to almost 300 pics.. ciws, calves, spikes.. never got murdered in Dease so good thing..

    Got back and big time change.. no picks for 2 weeks.. starting to pick up again..

    Went out this morning.. nothing but squirrels and nit a pic since the 29th..

    Oh well, beauty morning today.. stars sparkling.. quiet as a morgue

    Highlight of the day was finding a road kill badger at 5 am this morning, scooped it and emailed the badger society so they can do dna on the threatened population in the EK..

    Mmmmm... badger stir fry.. yummy as hell

    I really enjoy your season updates Mike, thanks for starting a 2019 thread. Was out with my daughter for youth season mulies, it was scary quiet, headed back out now! A buddy dropped a spike bull though.

    Ha ha, my buddy always laugh when I call him and say I am on my way to pick him up for the hunt.
    Always ask if he has his tags, guns, ammo, and "did you cut your toenails"

    Sheep hunt once coming down I could feel the pain, but couldn't believe once the socks came off how deep they can go.
    Right to the bine almost.
    Like you, lessoned learned.
