[QUOTE="The Trinity Kid, post: 1378251, member: 91382"] On to the 25th! I didn't get out into the woods until 11, and only got to hunt until ~3, but I covered a lot of ground. This is in the same canyon as the one I was in on the 23, but instead of driving to the top, I started at the bottom.[ATTACH=full]86529[/ATTACH]And here's another Mountain Lion track.[ATTACH=full]86530[/ATTACH]This picture doesn't show how steep this was, but it's where I walked up. It was a fire line, put in by a bulldozer. It's 250 feet tall, and gets there in about 50 horizontal feet. I don't feel like doing any Pythagorean theorem at the moment, but it was steep. And covered in wet clay, so it was slick.[ATTACH=full]86531[/ATTACH]The red circle is my truck from the top.[ATTACH=full]86532[/ATTACH] At the top, I took a quick water break. Removed a layer, took the rifle off of the backpack and on my shoulder, ate a granola bar and caught my breath. And the hunt was on.[ATTACH=full]86533[/ATTACH] This road continues for about 200 yards, before it gets to where I was headed.[ATTACH=full]86534[/ATTACH] Which was this clear cut. At the widest point across, it's about 450y.
