Default a few more...

Camp, for me, has always been a tent, dropped in lots of different country. Here are some of my favorites.

Be careful in a wind storm where you park...

We pitched this one in the dark with a substandard ridgepole, that barely made it through the night...

Ok now! Did you do a trip report from that lake? It haunts me. I really want to drag some downriggers in a remote corner of it one day. There's gotta be monster fish out that way!

Default Camp....

I have been working on an old '73 tandem axle camper. I stripped it out completely, repaired some water damaged framing that type of stuff. I have a fullsize bed in the back, a bench one guy can sleep on and enough room for 2 cots if needed. I almost have my wood burning stove completed and ready to be installed!!! I hope to have her completed by april9th so I can pull it out in the 11th after work for a week long trip. Weather dependant on how that trip turns out. Either gonna be a bear hunt, shed hunt or just camping haha. Ill post pics up once I get the build completed

Last November's deer camp. Upgraded from 2 end to end 12x14's with lodgepole frame to a 14x16 internal frame with 10 ft porch. Ran with porch open for Sept elk hunt but closed it off for deer camp. Stacking cots are a game changer.

Luckwell, love the tent glowing one!! I have a couple from many years ago with the lanterns lighting up the tent and I was backed away from the tent a bit down the cutline and got the full moon glowing above it.

Here is a pic of 2016 Hunting Camp and one with me and my 2 boys. For my oldest, this was his third trip to Moose Camp and the first for my youngest.

Yes you are Buddy !! What is it now, 25 years and counting in the same camp.

What started out for many years as just the 2 of us is now a bigger camp with 6-7 other friends and now with growing with the young boys coming out for a few days with the Dads. Pretty soon we will need the second wall tent set up as there could be 7 or more boys out with the Dads.

Looks like the Hilton for a base camp with private airstrip!! lol.

But I know you rough it more than that with these types of hunts...sometimes a tarp on the mountainside for the night with just your hunting clothes on.

Nice view from the Lodge. Looks like you can drive there as well.

If that's Charlie Tango Papa parked there I have flown a few times in her. Did you buy her?

No I didn't buy her, Black sheep fly's for me in the fall.

When I buy one it's either going to be a cub or one of those new cub crafters. I've got some pretty short strips and the 185 is not the best choice.

It's not too bad IFM !

3000 square feet with 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms lol

Backcountry isn't so plush, although we do mostly have cabins out there to hunt out of. The odd lucky guy gets to spend a night out under the stars on a hillside though lol

Have a look at a Sherpa K650T. I flew one around for a day. Very impressive especially the REAL payload you can haul. You can haul alot of moose in that bird!
