I just got this cell cam video.  I live in W WA this is in eastern Oregon. I keep it there year round just for stuff like this

One of the coolest videos I've seen!!  Thanks for sharing!

I'm guessing you were able to drive down and kill both animals, correct?  (Sarcasm)  :)

Good one.  This is one of those spots where you get barely enough signal in about a 50 foot by 50 foot opening.  The next nearest signal is about 4 miles away. 1/2 mile of that by foot lol.

Hope they outlaw the ATV's and side by sides that have taken over all hunting roads  gated or not. Appears every resident hunter owns at least one and thinks it is ok to drive at 50 MPH on the logging roads endangering everyone, go off road and plaque the walk-in hunters on every gated road. Appears there is no enforcement of the laws if they even exist. Never seen anything like it. Appears money rules again as every town in Idaho is selling these and destroying hunting as we have known it.

I used cameras for years when I lived in WA. Since moving to ID I haven’t used them, not for any particular reason, just haven’t. I don’t miss it at all! The mystery is back in hunting and I love it.

I’m tired of being filmed everywhere I go in public. The woods used to be the one place a guy could get away from the constant surveillance.

Well, quick update.  After overwhelming support to KEEP cellular trail cameras legal the Idaho Fish and Game Commission decided to say FU, we know better and has sent the prohibitions forward for the leguslation to approve.  The comment period was 75% to allow the continued use and they decided they know better.  They even admitted in the meeting that the cameras have no significant impact on harvest numbers.

Sure makes a guy really want to dedicate his spare time and energy to attending meetings, providing feedback and trying to make his voice heard

I was delusional thinking moving to Idaho id be in a more free state and not have to deal w anti hunters on a hunting commission.  Watched the video of the meeting, those folks are just like wa commissioners! The one guy who didn’t like the new law voted for it anyway, WTF.
