Opening Day 2006
08.30.06
Today was a beautiful day. The temperature dropped over ten degrees since yesterday. The big game were definetly movin about. August 30th. Any elk for archery is open. Bear and lion are open for modern rifle. Too bad we don’t have hounds. It would be too easy.
Jonas and I closed the billiard shop down early. Picked up some bear and elk tags at Black Sheep sporting goods, and headed up to spirit lake. Roamed the mountains but didn’t get any luck. We bought a day pass to some land owned by a paper company. There was a feller up there who won the drawing for a moose tag. He told the gate host that he came pretty darn close to one on a ridge, but coulden’t get a clean shot. What a shame.
We didn’t see much stirrin out there. But we got all season to look! Man, I love hunting season. Nothing ever gets done around here, but I dont care. It’s worth it.
