This is the hunters that rarely get a deer, but we are good at
burning stumps. We are the great white tail stump burning team. Sure,
some day we'll clean up all the wood in the woods but it'll take a lot
of good hunting trips to do it.
A little better shot of the stump diameter. Jim, Clint and Dennis.
The beginning of the stump fire. A different shot. Jim, Dennis and Clint.
In 2009 the Forest Service (more like a bureau) logged and burned everything around this camp, so we got a head start on our stump burning chores.
OK, just kidding. We do get a deer once in a while and sometimes we
get a good one. Four point White Tail the next year after this in
2008. After the Forest Service burned things, it's still a good camp,
but I use my motor home now and don't have any recent pictures of this
camp site.
The back side of the old camp in 2005. Jim and the stumps the next day. Then it was nothing the day after this.
This is the kind of camp site I like. Sitting around watching stumps
and old chairs burn. My bicentennial deer, although it was a while
ago, was shot near here and it's why we keep trying. And the camping's
great.
My new tent, in back, at the old Bonapart camp site. The camp with the motor home 2009.
Then there was the old camp site on Bonapart Mountain before Tunk Mountain.
And I have a few shots of my camp in 2009 and 2010 with the motor home, and the Jeep
in tow.

There's tracks in the snow above.
So now I use a motor home, instead of a tent. But I still can't get away from the comfort of the wood stove heat in the tent. So the awning has a stove in it. And then I have skirting around the rest of the motor home, to keep the heat in underneath.
Anyway, I'll be adding stuff to this site and getting it organized as things progress. I'm also figuring out how to build a web site, so hang in, and come back. I'm building this by hand in a text editor with the idea that now I'll know what's going on.
And why pay $500.00 for a web site builder when I can do it for free using a bit of work.
It also took some copy and paste with the mouse and some reading. So, thanks to Matthew MacDonald and his "the missing manual" books and Creating a Website. Then thanks to Dynamic Drive DHTML code library (www.dynamicdrive.com) for some of the copy and paste stuff.
