Moose Hunting

Jake drew a calling season moose tag around home this year. We had plans to get out for a week starting on Oct 1st, but the season opened on the 24th so we snuck in a couple day trips over the weekend. Jake is looking strictly for a moose to fill the freezer and could careless about the horns. After having fed him for the first 18 years of his life I know how much he can eat so a really big one wouldn't hurt anything either! (grin) We caught terrible moose hunting weather, 24 degrees and windy. We had a cow answer first thing Sat morning but her next answer was much further away. It was obvious she had a bull with her and she wasn't let him stick around and listen to our sweet serenade. There is still all the leaves on the trees and visibility is low but the view is breath taking. So off to camp in a week! No biggie a week in the Deluxe Wall tent away from the office is just what the doctor ordered!
