The Camp Site


This was our 2007 camp, off Moffat County 101, north of Craig, Colorado. From here it was a 40 minute drive to the north check-in area for Snake River Ranch where I would start the hunt and 40 minutes to the south check-in area.

Our trailer is visible between Ken's 35-foot Winnebago and the green army tent where Ron and Travis stayed. Notice the small blue tent the the left. We dubbed it the "Taj Mahal", although its purpose was far different. Let's just say one person could stand - or sit - comfortably!

Dave Miller, my hunting partner for over a decade, was staying in the trailer with me. Ken Willis, a good friend and two-time ex-boss had his son-in-law, Eric, staying with him in the Winnebago. Dave and I have hunted with Ken and Eric before. Eric is a DEA agent in Maryland. Ron and Travis are cops from Delmar, Maryland.

The snow is what was left of about a foot we got Saturday night. It made for great mud. Fortunately I have chains for all 4 wheels – we needed them!
