Sheds and Snowshoes

[Species8472]

So I went up to our camp today today to try and bring my RTV home. It has been buried in the snow since December. Well no luck on that front - still too much snow.



This stake normally has 30 inches showing. 2 weeks ago it was not visible but now has a bout 12 inches showing.



After I gave up on the RTV I put the snowshoes on and did my standard 8km loop with stops at the food plots and at the river.

Snow is slowly melting off the stands:



Ice is now off the river but is still flowing down the river in nice size chunks:







At this point it was time to break out the emergency provisions:



Found a matching set of sheds sticking out of the snow down by the river. Should be more to be found as the snow continues to melt.



On the way back out I found fresh turkey tracks in the snow and in the mud next to a spring. First turkey sign this year. 2 weeks ago there was no sign.



Altogether a fine way to spend Sunday afternoon.

You guessed it. About 3-4 miles west of Priceville.

Looks like a little slice of heaven there Species. Nice day to be out and about too.

Thanks for sharing. The spring thaw is definitely on it's way.

Nice pics. Sounds like you had a great spring day out and about. Nice taste in brews, too!

Nice sheds! I have only ever found 1 matching set of shed antlers and they were only 2 pointers.

Beautiful picutures, you are one lucky landowner. A little jealous right now.
