With the storm of two days ago, temps have dropped below freezing overnight in the high country. With no wood stove, it’s just movement and coffee to keep a guy warm. I had to sleep in my Kryptek Dalibor II Jacket last night and probably will for the rest of this hunt (using a Sierra Designs Thinsulate lightweight sleeping bag which is usually enough this time of year.)
Left camp about 20 minutes before glassing light to see if any bucks showed up in the country I glassed last night. I took the horses this time. I never separate my horses when I’m this close to the buck country. They’ll just whinny all morning alerting bucks for miles. I can’t count how many times I’ve seen hunters make this mistake, including myself in the early years. Here’s a video wrap-up of the day:
By the way, for the techy amongst us, my new book, Hunting Big Mule Deer, was just RELEASED IN KINDLE VERSION! With this version, ALL OF THE PHOTOS ARE FULL COLOR. I have to say myself that they look fabulous. You can sample the Kindle version below on your PC and see some of the photos.
