Dream Hunt

[villagelightsmith]

I was tempted to say something snarky, like Democrats in California, but these are perilous times and some fool might take it seriously. So ... amend that thought. California Democrats in the Lost Continent of Atlantis. As far as we know, California Democrats have been extinct in Atlantis for some time. So it should be a nice place for a very peaceful hunting trip. There, everybody can be happy except the Endangered Species Activists, and by definition Activists can never be satisfied/happy anyway, so who cares about them?
Humor included, I will take the Elk in the Absarokas. But I'm going to need a hand packing a critter out. A drop camp with a spike or two and a few topog maps, and a couple of good mules, with a couple of months prior to get acquainted (with the mules and the country) would make for one fine and final hunt. IMHO.
(I was a Democrat for nigh on 50 years, so you'll forgive my twisted humor about them critters. A couple of months without having to listen to 'em sounds pretty good this year! I'd lots rather listen to mules and elk, the silence of the spaces and the winds in the high country.)

Bear in Alaska... my hillbilly blood can't justify spending that much for meat though....

A ram in the Tarryall mountain range with Jack O'connor. I once stayed in a cabin that had been rented out to Jack back in the day and I swear I could almost feel the excitement he must have felt. I took out a spotting scope and spotted several sheep up on the slopes but it wasn't season and I really didn't know how to hunt them anyway.

I guess I'd settle for a high country mule deer. Spot and stalk for a mule deer is the most exciting hunting I've ever done and although I wasn't all that successful at it (got one so so buck) I had the time of my life and would LOVE to do it again.

My dream hunt would be a 30 day horseback hunt in the Yukon for Stone sheep & Grizzly and moose. But I don't think bear hunting is legal in Canada any more.

My dream hunt is any big game any time any where I get the chance.

I would love to go to hunt an Beozar Ibex someday. I just think they look so majestic climbing on those rock cliffs. Doubt it will ever happen but you have to dream. An Alaskan Yukon Moose would also be high on the list.

Soundwaves can facilitate an Ibex hunt you wouldn't believe.

'
Bull Tahr would be high on my list as well. NZ is really not as far out of reach for the average guy as most folks think.

My dream hunt would be to see Daughter #1 get her first elk.

I've hunted moose, Dall sheep, bear and caribou in Alaska when I lived there. I moved to Wy back in 1995 and have hunted elk, pronghorn, muleys and whitetail. I'd say they were all dream hunts. Now I dream of doing it all over again.
