New property cams checked

[finnman]

I was finally able to pull my cards from my cameras on the property in Okanogan Co.
I let them soak since July last year. I bought two new cameras they were GardePro's and I have to say for $55 they out preformed my expectations. The battery life was still at 4 out of 5 after 9 months. lots of pics and not very many of just bushes or trees moving. Most are triggered by small animals like, turkeys, squirrels, rabbits, skunks, coyotes, bobcats, and then the bigger game were, Whitetails, Mule deer, one bull elk, and a cow moose. I did not get one photo of a cougar, black bear, or wolf. That is a plus I guess. I got one series of a bobcat walking by with a squirrel in his mouth. Also a set of WT bucks tracking does in heat and sniffing the air. Around the week of November 14-20th.
All told it seems I got about 12-14 different bucks. Mostly WT. The larger muleys showed up late with no antlers. Just white roman nosed bucks with scabs on their heads. Probably passing down from up high. 
It was a lot of fun and I ordered 3 more cameras to set up in June when we return.

Quite the variety! Pretty cool. As far as the big predators go, we seem to get far more bears than anything else up there. About once a year a cat comes through, but the bears are heavy. Enjoy the new place! How was getting in? We made our first trip about 5 weeks ago and it was a bit of a rodeo. Will be back up next week, I’m assuming everything is cleared out by now.

One of my neighbors has 40 acres, he got 6 different bears on camera last year. They ended up tearing up his cabin water tank in August.
The drive in was great last weekend. The camera showed most of the snow was gone in mid April. That camera is at 4,040 feet elevation.
We will be back in late June for more work and more cameras...

Maybe you could clean the property up a little bit.

[finnman]

We did some major cleaning! Thanks for the suggestion. 
I only had time this go around to pull the two SD cards from the nearest cameras on my property. The other 6 will have to wait.
What is your thoughts on these guys? Wolves or?

[finnman]

Some how the time and date stamp got jacked up. It is from this summer sometime.
Here is a coyote on the other camera.....and a couple of the local bucks....
I also picked up a bull and a few cows and two black bears...

We cleaned the place up. Added 170 yards of crushed rock, took out around 80 trees, made the approach into the site wider and straighter. Multiple turn-around areas for trailers and such. Added a lean to cover for the sxs and rock steps to the toilet. Making some progress toward a cabin.

Unfortunately those are wolves. We had one run through our place last year. Talking with locals, the state has been dropping problem wolves at Bonaparte but won’t label them as a pack since there isn’t a breeding alpha pair. Pretty stupid, but what do we expect from the state. Nice pics on the rest. Looks like you’re making some killer progress!

[finnman]

Yep bummer about those wolves. I am not too happy with the deer numbers right now and they wont help it any. I hope they just ran through and head elsewhere.
I did get a herd of 4 muleys together on camera. That was a good sign.
