$20 bill, a few arrows, a hatchet, my Enumclaw wrestling sweatshirt I lost the year before, a pile of old playboys up past Wilkeson and a full coor's light mini keg when floating the green last summer.

a backpack and clothing with all of someones personals including 2,000 dollars cash. The deputy got back to me and said it was a mental patient that they caught up with in georgia. Three poached deer with antlers removed of course, and I kid you not another hunter taking a crap in the woods.(talk about awkward) :sry:
But love of the wilderness is more than a hunger for what is always beyond reach; it is also an expression of loyalty to the earth which bore us and sustains us, the only home we shall ever know, the only paradise we ever need - if only we had eyes to see.

Found 3 silver dollars on a rock peak overlooking Jordan valley out of packwood.  We were in 6" of fresh snow with big snow drifts in spots.  Stopped for lunch to glass the valley on some wind blown rocks and there lay 3 silver dollars?  Never saw a deer one.



  you saw 3 bucks.  :chuckle:

Several Leatherman's, a ton of arrows and a young couple going at it in the middle of a horse trail with their horses tied up in front of them.   :yike:

I found a huge pot grow, complete with what looked like a booby trap (random steel wire strung tight across the trail)... I  called the police on that one as soon as I got back home.

I ran into a group of "big foot researchers" once while hiking.  on the hike back I pulled off my size 14 EEEE hiking boot and stuck my big bare foot in a drying mud puddle. :chuckle: I really couldn't help my self, so I made faux squatch tracks in two more spots along the trail.

I found a lost, drunk chick wandering around the Olympics last weekend. At 5:30 in the morning  :yike:

I found a female mannequin  :yike:!  Looked real untill we (me and my boys) got close enough. Heart was pounding and everything.  Someone had used it for target practice.

This wasn't out by the Lincoln Cliffs near Roosevelt was it?  Me and a buddy were driving home from turkey hunting out that way one year and came around a corner to find a garbage can legs sticking out of it.   :yike: :yike:Turns out it was a female mannequin that had been used for target practice.

Golf balls, game tracker flashlight in a stump, arrows, my pocket knife that I lost earlier in the year, old coal mine shafts and rusty camp garbage- nearby railroad tracks sticking out the front of a beaver pond, homemade grain feeding stations X2, old wooden tree stands- shot a deer from one of them.

Oh, and cool rocks- pound for pound I think I pack as many rocks out as game meat!
