Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Let's See Those Deer Camps!

That's a fine camp Timbermaster.

You already know how I feel about yours.

I had one with the 4.3. Biggest POS I've ever owned. Spent more time fixing it than driving it. Something broke every other week. The engine was the only thing on that heap that was any good at all. Got a Ford Explorer and then a Jeep Wrangler and now a Jeep Grand Cherokee. All were/are are WAAAAY Better than that sorry POS S-10 Blazer. You didn't miss a thing but headaches.

Nice! About the only bird left on my bucket list, always threatened to do it but never have, how did you do? I went after the white tailed ptarmigan here in Utah a few times and got into them around kings peak and gunsight pass in the Unitas at around 12,000 ft . Probably a similar hunt?

I used to operate like that. Hated any kind of cooking or camp chores.
Use a wall tent or trailer now when hunting with friends. Have used the wall tent for years but I hate set up and tear down.

More often than not I’m solo hunting deer, got this for a base camp. Sets up fast and is solid.as you can see I hate having to go to town for propane

I jumped 5 or 6 coveys, but like normal, most jumped way out of range. I also belly crawled up to this covey in the pic below, but at about 60 or so yards they realized something was up and dove off a 1000 foot cliff. If you look close, you'll see 5 or 6 snowCOCK. Picture was zoomed way in at about 200 yards with a cheap camera, so bluritud is a given.




That said, I did hit one HARD out of another covey but it kept sailing and made it to some other cliffs. I got to where I safely could and glassed for a few hours trying to locate him and hope he'd flutter and fall off, and land somewhere I could safely get to him. No dice. I have yet to kill one but every time I have gone, I have got shots. Not good shots mind you, as normally I have a 1000 foot cliff on one side of me, a 70% talus slope on the other, and I try twisting around loose rock to get my shot.

Lots of goats though.




One day...

T Inman,
Is that the Ruby Mtns in Nevada?

The snow pictures and wood smoke...what a cozy scene.

Elk camp.

Yes, sir. Exactly what I was hoping to see.

The picture I show people when they ask about going hunting with me.
"I'd like to take you with me but the cabin is really small."

GORGEOUS pic. Could be on a Fall Calendar.

Enjoyed the whole post. Thnx for sharing.


I don’t hunt in or out of a deer camp anymore. 2011 was my last year to belong to a lease.
It’s nice & convenient hunting at home or 3 mi away BUT

I do miss the camp FIRE and FUN of hunting companions.

I’ll look and see if I can find any old paper pix of former deer camps.

Great pics..great memories..keep um coming

Here is our family camp in central PA. Pictured with a .30-40 krag and a 7 point we chased out. Only picture I have of it here but will try to find more



This is a bear camp that I am invited to in Clinton County PA. Both are beautiful spots to spend time!

You've probably all seen this place before. Der Bauernhof am Loch im Ende des Stumpfes



It even has its own website:

Der Bauernhof

SuperCore, Angus, and the rest of the Shamanic Dream Team are celebrating our 18th Season.

I love these threads

Well we got elk, antelope and grouse camps in the deer hunting forum, so I feel confident Tzone won't mind moose camps.

How about a squirrel camp, Tzone?

Sweet! I have the exact same gun. Tack driver.

The trigger sucks ass but there are upgrades for about $80
