I took advantage of the nice weather this weekend to retrieve some cameras. I hope to bring most of my 40+ cameras home and let them dry out until April or May. 1st Paddle This first area I had 5 cameras that I hadn’t visited since September, the batteries were dead in 2 but somehowContinue reading “Retrieving Cameras”

Checking Cameras

October 5/6 I set a camera here, there are a lot of trails, a few beds and lots of deer poop in the area so it should be a good spot. This was the second time I’ve checked this camera location, I changed trees last time I was here and this angle is working better.Continue reading “Checking Cameras”

September 25-26

I spent Saturday looking for deer and checking trailcams, I didn’t see any bucks but managed sneak in close enough to bag 4 does with my camera in thick stuff. Sunday I dragged a herring around behind my kayak, fishing was slow but I managed to catch a few cohos

Hiking and Kayaking September 18-19

I didn’t see much wildlife this trip but got to know a couple areas a bit better, and found a few fresh buck rubs, showing the rut is starting though it probably won’t get serious for about 4 more weeks. Checked a few Cameras This camera watches an intersection in some timber.

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. The trail ends at a single tent platform just short of the main body of Talbot Lake and a little before that there is a fork in the trail that ends at aContinue reading “Connell Lake Trail”
