Shedhunting

[johnk]

Well, it's that time of year again. Cabin fever has set in big time and no better remedy than getting out in the bush. Shedhunting is nothing more than hiking with a purpose and for me walking those ridges with southern exposure is a breath of fresh air after a long winter. It is still almost a month before spring bearhunting cranks up and shedhunting is a great way to remedy thos early spring doldrums. What do you do to shake off those cooped up cobwebs?

Hey funny you mention that John I was thinking about doing just that this afternoon but I am so new I have no idea where to start.

Well on Johns advice, my wife and I went for a little walk yesterday.
We didn't find any sheds, but we did find a
whole front leg.
A large bone fragment.
Old tire.
Oil can
beer can
lots of hair from a moose hide I am surmising.
muffler
beer box
beer bottle.
Maybe next time we will find an antler.
I will also head in farther from the road.

P.S. I almost forgot we spooked a couple of deer as well.
Judging by the tracks one was a decent buck. Big track, 8-10 paces between touchdowns.
