How about a squirrel camp, Tzone? I don’t care. I just like to see what everyone uses. Camp is wherever and whatever you make it!

Rooster, addressing the trigger pull weight is the first thing I did after purchase. A local gunsmith worked on the hammer and sear and it is now 3 lbs.

What a great thread. Awesome camps guys. I'll be headed to West Virginia for deer camp with old friends in just a few weeks.

JG, when I was doing field work in the TX panhandle I could swear I’ve seen that red roofed house. Where’s that thing at?

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! -Jake NIce pics! Our camp is in Clearfield County between Sabula and Penfield. 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

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.

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.

Is that a Sawtooth? Tut? How do you like it? I am seriously thinking about picking up a Sawtooth with the liner. I already have the stove.
