Ah the good old days.....

Snow was common
Any bull was fair game
2 week long November modern firearm seasons were the law
Men took their boys out of school for the week (if grades were good enough)
Elk hung in camps

I'd sure like to turn back the clock.

 NOT alone there!



 This one is of our father during the now defunct late hunt that was in the same geographical area as  Malaga special permits that used to be open to all tag holders. I believe this is mid 1970's late November  
  We lost him in 1990 and have missed him ever since

 This one 1981. We had gone up to the four corners  (Old camp-toward new camp pic earlier) area and set up camp on Friday . Having forgot something friend an I headed back down to Wenatchee Saturday night via Jumpoff Ridge rd . As we got down just past the old lookout and across the cattle guard coming out under the powerlines I looked to the northern sky and faintly saw something that I thought could be the Northern lights. We could barely see it with our eyes, so we parked the truck set the old Nikon FE to an 8 second exposure setting on the hood of the truck which got me this.

1982 feels like yesterday.  Not sure how I feel about that.  Thanks for thinking of us and sharing your pictures.
