Gold Creek deer 1954
« on: March 19, 2009, 03:02:24 PM »
     This is a photo of my Grandmother and her Aunt with the results of their hunting prowess.  As the subject line states this is on Gold Creek, Fall 1954.  The two ladies are 62 and 47 years old.
     Every time I hunt there I wish those two ladies could see the area and comment on the changes.  My son gets a huge kick out of hunting where his Great-Grandparents hunted.  My Grandmother is on the right in the photo carrying her Mannlicher .270.  She got it from my Grandpa as a birthday gift.  No one else was allowed to hunt with her rifle!
     I have a neat memory of going to visit her as a kid and finding her in front of her barn half up inside the chest cavity of a bull Elk she had tagged.

     Thanks Boneaddict!  I knew I should have waited until the kids were home so I could ask for help!!

My Uncle sent me a bunch of old hunting photos and I wanted to post them on here but don't know how to do it from my e-mail.I don't know where he got them but they are pretty cool.

Is that Gold Creek in Eastern Wa by Colville, or another Gold Creek?
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Too bad there's no more deer up Gold Creek anymore. What a shame. Used to be a decent spot.

I guess that kind of answers my question...

It looks like it is probably Gold Creek up on Chinook Pass.  Not really sure though.
