I'm back from the great north woods. Wish I could say we brought back a bear, but it didn't happen. Only one bear seen in the week we were there. My friend passed on the shot as it was questionable. The other friend never saw a bear.

The good news is that there was a 13 year old staying at the same resort that shot his first bear. His dad had it on video and brought it over to show us. He was one proud dad.

We've been told that there was a 737 pound bear taken in Shawano County and another 700 plus taken in Rusk County. I haven't been able to verify this yet though.

I spent a good deal of my time brushing out the mile of trail into our camp.

Saw a lots of turkeys and some deer. Our bow season starts on the 18th along with grouse.

The trees are really starting to turn now.


What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Except for bears. Bears kill you.
