Some of the activites that are a part of your hunt start long before you arrive.
This is what camp looks like three weeks before the first sit. of the season. This is our dining tent on its way up. Lark, in the foreground is fixing up a patch for the roof before we place in the center poles.

Another view, Ron in the background, preparing the final touches before 'raising the roof'. |
Here is Lise showing us her version of 'Shake 'n Bake'.
(Really, what happened, is I surprised her as she was setting up to do some scrambled eggs for breakfast. - - -
But it DOES look like a popular Canadian dance, no?) |
Here is Ed, one happy camper, about to weigh his bear in. Dan Naster took the pot, with his
estimate of 267 against the actual weight of 265 pounds. |
Dr Jay Beel, with his bear on our 2001 hunt. Although this picture does not do him justice, this was our second largest bear at just a bit over 320 pounds
Jay's first hunt, and with the aid of a Marlin 12 guage and slug, the combination lead to a very quick and effective job.
Short and sweet, that seems to quickly end the debate about whether or not the 12 guage slug can be
effective on bear. In hunting, placement is everything, proven once again by the results you see here.
Jay's bear which was in the 'Pope & Young' category and would have been in the record books for archery.

Lark, working on Jay's bear. Note the size of the paw, as compared to Larks arm/elbow. Quite a contrast.
