3 Generation late night pack
« on: August 28, 2024, 08:40:43 AM »
Son calls me late yesterday. Says dad, just killed a nice bear, up in, you know, that nasty brushy canyon we always swear not to hunt again ‘cause it’s so thick, but have pulled probably 25-30 bears out of. Met at trailhead around 9pm. Back, quartered and skinned to truck 1:20’ish.
My son, oldest grandson and I and more memories!
Never hunting that canyon again (yeah, right!😉)

I've heard many of your stories about that canyon.....you always say your never going back!!  I'm starting to think it has a gravitational pull that sucks you guys in year after year!!!   :chuckle: :chuckle:

Love the success pics.  Congrats to the three of you.  Now get back in that canyon and kill a few more bear.   :tup: :chuckle:

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.

I don't even think we could do that in my area.
Half the bear would be ate by bees , second you opened it up.
Looks awesome 👍👍👍
