He's not looking great, and while I want him to die at someone's hand (it'll be a loss if nature takes him) I would like to take this moment to thank Droopy for everything he has provided me:

1) A much higher fitness level that I would have without him:  If I hadn't trucked up that hill 3000 times I'd be much fatter than I am now.

2) A bear:  I would not have shot my bear this year had I not been up looking for Droopy.

3) Someone else with approximately 3 game cameras:  Trying to catch Droopy on camera has resulted in 1 D-Bag stealing 3 of my cameras or 3 DBags stealing 1 of my camera's each.

4) An antler shed: Either there are 4 points everywhere up there, or I have Droopy's once worn antler.  This is much more than D-Rock has (he only has a crappy movie).

 :brew: Here's to you Droopy, you giant old split-eared SOB.

I have 2 videos and probably 6 to 8 encounters with him.

Not a single one. But I checked it October 25th so all the new pics are fairly late in the year. I did get probably at least 10 different bucks though. The weird part was I only got pics of one doe.

I think the area was hit pretty hard this year during bear season.  I know of 5 confirmed bear kills.

I did get a bunch of bear pics in October on my camera that is lower down. And a few on this one. So there are a few that made it for sure. I bet there are still a lot. Hopefully with so many killed the fawns will do good this spring.
