Turkeygirl Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 So in June when I was in the Adirondacks and we spent a week hiking, I got to see me first real Adirondack hunting camp. My professor who also is a hunter, has alot of knowledge about the hunting camps, historically. Let's just say there is somethign special about them, maybe it is being a small cabin in the middle of nowhere. We looked in the windows and I saw some beatufiful racks on the walls. There were old bunkbeds, not even made,lol, and washed dishes piled in the sinks. Just looking at it, I could tell that guys must spend many days out there just hunting. The outside of the cabin on a porch had a bunch of racks also, and old bottle sitting on the railings. there was an outhouse with a skull nailed to the door. Maybe it is because it is rustic but I don't think I'd mind having my own camp! Anyone else seen these camps? They are so cool,lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkeygirl Posted September 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Re: Adirondack hunting camps Wow Ranger, that is a nicer hunting camp than the one I saw. I think the one I saw was pretty old, not an original but old. Nice camp though!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerClay Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Re: Adirondack hunting camps Thanks TGirl! It is a fairly new camp, built in 1999. The gentleman (my cousin) in the red shirt is our Lodge Commander, his name is Tom. He owns the camp and property. The shed he is holding was found this last spring. We don't see many deer but when we do they usually look like that one. With the exception of one spike the smallest buck ever seen on the property is a 6 point. Glad everyone is enjoying the pics Ranger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkeygirl Posted September 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Re: Adirondack hunting camps In June when I was hiking in the Adirondacks with the professor of my class and his kids, we found a set of deer prints and let me tell you, those tracks were huge! They had to be from a really really nice buck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swamphunter Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Re: Adirondack hunting camps I hunt in the Adirondacks as they are close to where I live and come across many of these cabins in the woods on the lease I hunt. (3000 acres). I will photograph some of the TG and send them to you this hunting season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
