Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Backpack Hunting Let's post some pictures

Just lucky I guess

That's all that was in photobucket. Loading a couple more now.

This cow had twins, which put on quite a display a couple times. She lost one, but thats the way it goes...






Twister moose, full on molting.



I know its the backpack hunting forum, but does sea life count?




A sleeping whale



A couple idiots getting too close to a sleeping whale and waking it up.

A couple years ago we ran into a pod of killer whales. Never did get the boat maneuvered correctly for the light.

No Wake Zone


Not my house... but I wish it was, that's a sweet lawn that you never have to mow.



Ice cube.


Evidence of global warming. The ice cube tray is melting.


Big 'ol mountain behind a mechanical snowshoe.

I think we determined this was a harbor porpoise rather than a Dall's. We see a lot more Dall's, but this guy was by himself and was having fun chasing the boat.

Just letting out a breath.


Kind of a neat shot where he popped right through the reflected mountains.





An auto-dispensing ice cube tray. Temp and tide can make this a tricky place to get to, as it ices out all at once in the spring and then continues to kick ice out for a big part of the summer. Heard a guy on the radio lamenting that they'd set up camp in this bay, and the next day you couldn't get in there without bumping tons of ice. That camp might still be there.


A scraggly looking goat about a half mile out from the glacier.

Ok, photobucket sucks, my internet connection is really slow, and it is sunny outside, so no more for now. If you guys are tired of marine animals, let me know and I'll stop posting them.

Snubbie, hope your PT goes well, listen to those folks and don't be a hero.

We made the top ten!

Can you tell me what axe/hatchet you are carrying on your belt and the usefulness of it please.
Im thinking a GB?

As monte python would say " and now for something completely different"

I do the population studies on our hunting concessions for the White Rhinos. Using trail Cameras and by darting them. We dart the females frequently to check health and for pregnancy. The Darting is by my hunters that choose to do a "green hunt" and shoot them with a dart rifle. We do this from the ground by spot and stalk or from a chopper cruising the tree tops.

Inside the archery ground blind, yeah it's freaking close!

Cool stuff Jim!

Man I love the looks of that country...

Some more NV, this time from an antelope hunt.

-Doug

We saw sheep, deer and antelope in this canyon, just didn't bother getting any pics of the antelope.

I was putting a camera stalk on the sheep when I jumped this guy from his bed.


The sheep looked down the canyon for a bit wondering, "what's wrong with that guy?" as the deer bounded away. They finally saw me and posed for awhile.


We were treated to some great sunrises.




This little gopher snake thought he was bad.


This fox let me have some photo fun.


We saw an awesome Black Rock Desert dust storm. It is hard to comprehend from these pictures, but the front of the dust wall here is about 3000' high.

Oh yeah, success was had. Heading back down to the Razr in the far valley below. We did an all day hike, climbing a couple thousand feet up to the antelope. :-)

Maybe...

Nice house, Brad!

Great pictures everyone! Threads like these are really great.

Yes, it's the GB Wildlife Hatchet. I was out that day looking for fatwood. That area burned a few years ago and there's some old pine stumps. I had success BTW. The hatchet was handy digging into those stumps.

Some more crap from my Photobucket... Apologize if these have been seen before...
