This year, I had one day that I called in seven coyotes. But, I went back again to that spot just recently, and got skunked…
…we spent five days playing in the Arizona Strip/North Rim country. A little over 400 miles of dirt. Had a great time!
It’s late summer, August, and I’ve been making a few coyote scouting trips lately. Now, I’m always scouting for coyote,…
Coyote camp is a very special place for me. There is just nothing else that matches the freedom of wandering…
That’s exactly what I said to the kids when I spotted this cat. “Look! A lion!”
Spotted him running through the oak brush, looked like maybe chasing a deer. After the kids spotted him my daughter started whistling at him and he stopped, turned and took a few strides our way. Then jumped up on a stump to get a better look at us over the oak brush. Sitting up proud and pretty at about 70 yards!
Of most interest at the site though, and what brought me here, is an arrastra, sitting all by itself in the bottom of a small canyon a mile or two from the mill. I’ve wanted to check it out ever since I was told about it years ago…
The three ‘chucks above, all got popped in less than 10 seconds. That AR is just a hoot in a target rich environment!
…I stumbled across a small mesa top site. Potsherds, flint chips, literal archaeology scattered on the ground…
…A simple idea… Drive from Wendover, straddling the Nevada/Utah border on I-80, to St. George in the SW corner of Utah, near the Arizona border. Drive from Wendover to St. George… on dirt…
After lunch at the Revenue mine, it was back on the trail to our next stop, the ghost town of Stateline. Stateline is one of the best ghost towns anywhere, too much to see in a short visit but we did our best!
