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.

Is that Gold Creek in Eastern Wa by Colville, or another Gold Creek?
