No Lions, No Billies, No Bears..Oh my!
« on: August 31, 2009, 09:01:21 PM »
So I was headed out this morning for my bear hunt and the road which leads to the town I was going toward had an accident. They told me 3 hours before the road was going to open up, so I decided to head up near Baker Lake area. Well, I must have made a wrong turn in Albequrqie because where I ended up was more like Goat or Ram country! Here are a few pics! As the title implies, didn't see any big game but flushed 5 good sized grouse.

purdy country up there...better luck next time.

I had to deal with an accident on 522 opening morning...it put a damper on it, but we still forged on.  ;)

I'll be honest with ya... After that first pic of the tarn area...even if I saw a bear I wasn't going to shoot it because I was already way to far in by myself. However, being stubborn like I am I just had to see what was just above the next ridge! Here it is!

cool pics.........gone any farther and you would need an ice axe, crampons,rope and ice screws.
Honesty is the best policy,  but insanity is a better defense.

That is exactly why I stopped where I did. I got to the ice and figured there is a difference between hard and being stupid!  ;)
