Yeah the kids loved it, though I had to carry hunter (4) a bit after the first walk. I wore his little legs out on the mountains the first day then I carried him 5 kms plus the next day. Hunter and Clint got to watch up close the fox get arrowed and they were really excited. I left Luke and Taylor up there for as long as they like so hopefully they are still having some success.

great photo's adam and sounds like an exciting story behind the boar. Well done on the trophy billy and boar.

can't wait to see what else luke and his son find up there.

I just got my BDU magazine today and see your taking guided hunts now? Good luck and i wish you all the best with it. I know you would make many a bowhunter happy with some of the places you have access to.
