So the Teanaway Pack is having quite a feast out there. :bash: :bash: :bash:

No pictures; all 3 of us forgot to bring our cell phone/cameras.  Way to big to be a dog's tracks unless someone's Mastiff is running around loose in the mountains!  I used to own Anatolian Shepherds and the tracks were larger than theirs.

I didnt see any wolves or wolf sign over there but I did see a cougar, right in the center of those pasturing areas...it was on private ground but it was pretty dang content to take a siesta in damn near the middle of a field, I figured it had a kill in the brush nearby  :dunno:
