I have 6 pairs of the Carharrt Rigid Loggers that I wear everyday, all year, except to the beach. They are great for everything from riding a motorcycle to traversing rough woods. I buy a new pair about once a year and try to keep one pair as new as possible for Sunday goin' to meetin' type...

The wolves are far more talented.

Such talent.

yaaa (cough-cough) aaay.

I am telling you, I can scare myself with that "raccoon fight" call ! The "ranting red bird" and "vole squeak" are hawk magnets. The 'female coyote long howl" is hauntingly beautiful and I love to hear that call in the woods at night.

On sale at Cabelas for $159 right now. They are a lot of fun. Even if you don't hunt, they attract birds of prey and other curious critters for photo ops.

Nice and simple. Buy or borrow an electronic game call like a Foxpro Spitfire. Place it a hundred yards from your gathering. You would have the remote control. Set it on "raccoon fight" and trigger it with the remote when everyone is out of their vehicles. Your friends will be diving into...

It is certainly not a quality paper Bob. I mainly check it out in the morning to make sure my house didn't burn down the night before. As Boyd experienced, they were a notoriously slanted paper. The quality of writing today is all over the place. A co-worker gets the print version and I am...

I remember it too. My parents subscribed when I was a kid and I had a 50 house evening delivery route for awhile. Collecting on Friday night was the worst part of the job. I wouldn't get done until 8 o'clock at night. My best customer was a guy who was always hammered. He would just keep handing...

If the PPA were true tree-hugging environmentalists, they should be more rabidly crazed over the 700 acre monoculture, which is Tuckahoe Turf Farms. After all, as any pimple faced college freshman learns in Ecology 101, nature abhors a monoculture, just as it does a vacuum. Certainly, let's not...

Wow. Who knew the PPA had such distorted views of reality ? From the linked article: "Carleton Montgomery, preservation alliance executive director, views the commission agreement with the Tuckahoe Turf Farm a violation of both farmland deed restrictions and the Pinelands master plan. "No one...

NJChile, where was the photo taken ?

I'd say bear, given the human footprint for scale. If not for the footprint, I would say the rear foot of a big, fat, trash-can-raiding raccoon. http://www.denniskalma.com/river/raccoontracks.png

Dogs of all kinds are prone to tracking interesting scents in a trail. One of the tips I learned from a grizzled old trapper at a trapping field class I had was that after making a set, walk "through" your set after you completed it. This would mean that you would not walk down a trail, make a...

I was glad we held to the intended date for the hike after Friday's snow squall. The weather for the hike was crisp and clear and I was impressed with the history and beauty that we were able to enjoy on this hike. I brought my Springer Murphy along again for this one and he was as enthused as...

Just got back from a job in Margate. Hawkin' pretty good down there and the water was up into the main road (563) this morning. They're expecting that again at high tide tonight.

Do I look like I have a circumference of 9' Al ? :) The one Chris next to is the larger. I guessed dbh at 36"-40" If it was 40", that would be over 10' in circumference.

From a trapper's perspective, they may have been setting/retrieving 330 body grippers for beaver. They are big and clanky. HOWEVER beaver season did not open until December 26. That may explain some of the sneakiness.
