The two bobcats together are pretty cool.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

Just crazy the amount of critters on your cams. So cool, but a grin reminder of the reality of our woods. Thank you for sharing them with us!!

Are these cams elevated in a tree?
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Yeah, most of them.  The cams on my own property are eye level though.

Do you haul a ladder or step-stool around with you in the woods to elevate them, or do you just shimmy up a tree?

Screw in steps usually.  Ladders are too cumbersome, and too damn noisy walking through brush.  Sometimes i just climb the tree, if there are branches low enough.

Well, ive been a bushnell guy for years.  Tried out a couple other brands, but always liked the bushnell.  Decided to try out a couple other brands again, so i just went back behind my house to set up a stealthcam ds4k and a spypoint force 10.  Noticed a bunch of lion tracks so i checked a couple cams near the house.  The pic with the cat in the bottom right of screen at 330pm is only about 60 yards from my house, and its walking away from the house, so who knows how close it was.  The other cam i would guess is 80-100 yards from the house.  They sure are bold.
