Re: Outdoorsman Thread
Just about my all time favorite moose pic. We watched this fellow work his way over a hill and down past a bunch of houses enjoying their shrubs along the way. Then he stopped for a little siesta on this house's patio. This was in Jackson, Wy. in 2014.
Re: Outdoorsman Thread
That is a great one, and hey, who is gonna argue with him about his menu or resting spot?

Re: Outdoorsman Thread
One would be crazy to even try and approach him.
A look at his antlers tells you he's ready for the rut.
They get reeeeeaaaal feisty 'round that time.

Re: Outdoorsman Thread
On the other hand, the fine photo brought back a bad memory to me. I was watching a video on, I believe, Banff Canada. Right in the town center, a man came out of a store carrying a bag of groceries and walked directly into an elk which proceeded to stomp him to death.
Re: Outdoorsman Thread
Thanks for all the comments. We were fortunate to watch him. And we always give them a wide bearth as the can be cantankerous. But they sure are fun to watch. And majestic as well.

Re: Outdoorsman Thread
As you know I love the Maine woods. While hunting in a new area yesterday on Peaked mt I walked on top of an old farmers wall that was 4" wide and around 3' tall for about a half mile along the way I saw 8 cellar holes from the early 1800's research tells me it was an old town built around Gris mills in the area. There also was two cemeteries with one head stone of a 22yo man that died in the civil war. Here's a pic of the farmers wall I walked on ,I'll bet I could drive my ATV on it.

David, first off, let me apologize for ignoring your o.p. in my post, that truly is a beautiful picture of the countryside at sunset.
What Charlie is referring to are the chemtrails in the sky. Conspiracy theorists claim they contain chemicals, courtesy of the Federal govt, to control our thinking etc. Google it.

Re: Outdoorsman Thread
Great post, garddog. I love running across things like that in the woods and would be interested in seeing more pics if you have them. Of course, where I live, I find ruins or grave markers from the late 1800's rather than early.garddogg56 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 15, 2019 11:49 pm As you know I love the Maine woods.

Any of you live near St. Louis? This is what my oldest son Bryan woke up to this morning in Herculaneum, MO just south of the city.
