Yellow Yellow the Adirondack Bear is Killed

"Yellow Yellow the Adirondack Bear is killed by Harvey44." ???????

My first reaction was why did he kill that bear?

It was Camp, I swear. He made me do it.  He lured me with his cheap beer and woodchucks.

On a more serious note, here in NJ the bear population has grown to about 4000.  People seem to think that is a lot, but I have to believe that's a small number compared to say 100 years ago.  What's the right number of each species (humans, bears) and how you keep each population at it's ideal number? I have no idea.

Old timers are my favorite part of camp. Our ring leader will be 80 when we head to camp this weekend and I can't wait to hear the same old storys. They just keep getting funnier and funnier.

That's awesome!!!

I often ski with a couple of Whiteface "old-timers", and I have to agree with you ... it's awesome to hang out with these guys and get their perspective on almost anything ... We "younger" guys still have a lot to learn!!!

Have a great weekend out there, and be safe.

Thanks---we'll be safe--safety is always first

I hope to live long enough to become one of the old timers. Wednesday night B4 T-day is the BEST for old timers, they clean house at race horse pitch. I swear they cheat but nobody can catch them bastards!!!

Hey it's CampHotTub!

Awesome. He needs a naked woman in there to make it complete.

Yep. I agree 4 wheelers are great for the sport of hunting to keep lots of folks involved.  My buddies hunt w their dads only BC of atvs allowing them to get into the woods.   Just saying ATVs help the 1% too that bring down the sport.  

I tried buying my dad a small ATV so he could continue his passion of mushroom hunting, he just found closer places to the road.   Love his wild mushroom soup!   I hope some day he can make the 9 hr drive to my home in the daks.  He would go crazy with the old growth and dead fall.   He has really bad circulation an cannot sit long in a car.

Bro, the percentage involved in bringing that "sport" down is way higher than 1%...

Do you really think so??? I would like to think most hunters are aware of their surroundings and respect the woods, but I really don't have a clue. I've been hunting with the same small group of guys now for years, all on private land, and we don't venture away from our slice of heaven. I do know there are fewer and fewr hunters in the woods which is sad. Too many life long lessons can be taught and learned out there. Guess kids nowAdays would rather play those silly video games---YUCK!!!  Tomorrow after work I head to camp for 10 days with no TV, phone, internet, or cell service ----- talk about heaven on earth

I was refering to the "sport" of ATVing not hunting.  And yes I think the percentage of ATVers that abuse public and private property w/ aggresive and/or drunk riding is much higher than 1%

As for hunters, I was learned in the old fashion way so I'm old fashion when I do venture out.  

Have a good time camp while in camp.

A friend refers to it as virtual dirt biking.
