Hiking – Page 10 – Joe's Trailcams

Checking 4 Cameras

This camera collected 1800+ pictures in a month mostly of this doe and her fawn, and another doe with twins. This camera is doing really well but I need to switch trees because most of the traffic is one-way. I added one more camera to this group, it covers a main trail through the timber.Continue reading “Checking 4 Cameras”

Connell Lake Trail

The Connell Lake Trail starts at the Connell Lake Dam and circles about halfway around the reservoir and ends at Talbot Lake.

Several trails come together here andContinue reading “Hiking and Kayaking while Checking Cameras”

3 Days of Hiking, Checking Trailcams, and a little Trout Fishing.

I moved a camera to this spot, this stream gets a lot of salmon and they should stack up in this deep pool which will attract bears this fall. Before then I expect a lot of deer and hopefully otters and other critters. Set a camera here where this main trail is intersected bu aContinue reading “3 Days of Hiking, Checking Trailcams, and a little Trout Fishing.”

This camera monitors a main trail and a bed. This was my first check of this spot; the camera captures an intersectionContinue reading “Checking 5 Cameras”
