I'm not sure I even know what a pika is...  I'm sure I have a picture of one though.  I shoot lots of wierd little rodents when I'm out shooting other things...

Here's a pika... they can be frustrating to photograph.

Show me the biggest roosevelt elk you've ever gotten a photo of -- anyone's personal biggest...

Lets see a pine martin!!!

Funny timing with you requesting this.  I saw my first one ever - this morning!  No chance for a pic, but it was awesome to see something that I always thought I'd never see in my lifetime.  If someone actually has a pic of a live one that they took in the wild, I'll be very, very impressed.

I've had the good fortune of running into quite a few pine martens while out hiking.  A few years ago I had one run right through my camp.  Got a picture but it had run quite a ways by then.  Had one follow me for quite a while up a steep rocky slope... I have got pictures several times, but none of them are very good.  I'm not a home right now so this picture will have to do.  Taken in 2006 next to an alpine lakeshore.  Heavily cropped and in poor light so it's not the best.

How about a pic with any harvested animal AND an International Scout in the frame?

How about a pic with any harvested animal AND an International Scout in the frame?   

Can't help with the pic, but I have a story about a harvested animal and a Scout. 

A '76 Scout II was my high school vehicle.  I trapped furbearers for some spending money.  Checked my traps before school one morning and caught a nice raccoon.  So I bopped him on the head with my walking stick (a stick/club selected for that purpose) and tossed him in a burlap sack.  After checking the rest of the traps, I returned to my Scout and tossed the sack in the back.  After only a 5 minute drive I was back home.  I didn't want a 'coon carcass in the Scout all day while I was at school, so I decided to take it out and hang it in the cool garage until after school when I would have time to skin it.  So I opened the back, reached for the sack, and was greeted with an evil hiss!  The dang thing was alive - and fully conscious!  I never moved so fast.  Got out of his reach just before he woulda bitten my hand. Darn good thing I never bothered to take the trap off his foot, as the trap along with the attached chain and stake got tangled in the sack, and kept him from being able to leap at me.  I ran for my dad, and together we managed to get him clear of the vehicle and bop him on the head.  Believe me, we bopped him good and proper this time.  I never trusted a 'dead' animal after that. 

Wish I had pics of that Scout, but that was way back before digital, and the pics are all packed away in some box somewhere.
