Robert.. We met at Three Fingered Jacks on Thursday night general buck. I've camped right where your tent was at Black Lake.  I'll go back with my fishing pole next spring!

Ya, there is a resident moose there.  The two times I've seen it, it was only about 1/2 a mile from the TH in the boggy area.  It seemed pretty adgitated the first time.  Kind of creeped me out.  Those things are huge. 

That's tough terrain to hunt,  a lot of downed logs past the lake and on the hillsides.  I went into Fawn Lake a couple years ago.  I felt like an LA driver about to get road rage by the time I was finished climbing over all the darn trees.

As far as fishing Black Lake, there are Dolly Varden's in it.  Technically not legal to remove from the water.  We cought a couple up to 16".

Them does come right into camp we had one last year we named spot. sitting around camp she would come within 10 yards of us without a care in the world.
Last year in the Pasayten we had Scruffy and Patch! One of them was within touching distance while I was digging the potty hole.

Deer Camp before packing up.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

Funny you say that... I'm looking for a lightweight small FOUR season tent to better endure the harsh weather that the high hunt can bring in short notice. When I find what I want, I'll be testing this winter.  :bdid:

I have a great -40F down bag but at some point you have to crawl out of it. :chuckle:
