I won't be back this fall but hoping to next fall for sure. The camps, at least in PA, seem to be a dying thing. Lots of them up north don't even open anymore. Or if they do it'll be one or two people there. It was good to see in this thread that some camps are still up and going. I have to miss bear season this year due to work and I hate to miss. But I'll have it scheduled off next year for sure. -Jake Small Game, Deer, Turkey, Bear, Elk....It's what's for dinner. If you know how many guns you own... you don't own enough. In God We Trust.

gophergunner Campfire Ranger Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 18,033 North Central U.S.	Lots of vacant camps in our area that used to be regularly occupied for the opener. Iconic names, well known in our area routinely sit empty now. Places like Camp Misery, The Plastered Bastards, and Bear's Den haven seen hunters in well over a decade. I really think QDM ran a lot of guys out of the woods. Not saying I am, or am not a fan, just saying it has played into the decline. Big camps in our area that used to have well over 10 cars parked at them seldom have more than two or three these days. Truly is a shame to see such a time honored tradition on an obvious decline. molɔ̀ːn labé skýla

roundoak Campfire Outfitter Joined: Dec 2009 Posts: 10,653 Badger State	A lot of deer camps in Northern Wisconsin have closed, including the one my Grandad and his sons owned since the 1930s. The main reason is the deer herd has been significantly reduced by hard winters, state and federal forestry practices, wolves and bears. You're Welcome At My Fire Anytime
