The Bark.

September 14, 2017. Hot sunny day, mid 70's. @1430.

I decided to let a day pass and go back down into the canyon. The bull was bedded on the same north facing slope, same contour line, except 1/4 mile sooner on the ski trail I was on. This time he was sleeping in front of a patch of willows and he didn't wake up until I had already passed him about 20 feet. He stormed down the ridge, sounding like a train ripping through the forest. As soon has he got up the adjacent ridge, he turned around and sounded off a high pitched bark. It was a thrilling experience. I think he was letting me know that he pegged me as a human. The bull didn't give me a third chance.

BJJ Journal

Breaking the guard - 2 on 1 Russian tie. Control opponent with 2 on 1 at his elbow and wrist, and pin him to the ground with it. While driving into him, walk him all the way up to top of his back, and get your hips under his. Move from 2-1 to double cliff hanger, then lift opponent off the ground. Break the guard by stepping back and pushing the knee out. Pinch one of the opponents legs, the side you want to pass. Let go of the arm and move to same side collar. Side hop, forehead driving into sternum and back step over into side control.

"The Flats"

Late season deer. "The Flats" a plateau over looking a lake. A square patch of doug firs bordered a meadow with young reprod. On the edge of the meadow in the timber, i encountered 21 deer in 5 days (3 bucks). "Mount Sinaloa" - Big bruiser track in the snow, trail led from saddle to clear cut. I think this was the buck that made those two rub lines. 2 mikes off the trail in the Sinaloa mountains, I hung a tree stand and trail cam for next season. I'm hoping to find a monster buck or bull somewhere in the dark timber.
