Hmmmm

My plan is to hunt from the top if the rams are up near the top but I’m not sure if we will have access with the fire.

My cousin shot a buck towards the top once but we took it down to the damn, took a canoe across just above the dam, loaded him up and rowed back across. Its plenty deep also.

Always one rule breaker in the bunch.  It was a good workout lugging it back up the hill   :chuckle:

There are a handful of spots below the dam you can just wade across after the flip flop happens too

We spotted two rams Thursday before dark but it was hard to see with the smoke.
