Last trip of the season

I'm leaving tomorrow morning for a 3-day trip to look for chukar in the moutains east of Bishop, CA. The bird numbers are way down - I have not even shot at a chukar in California in the past two years, but for a few years before that I had pretty good hunting. But I really like to be in the field on New Year's Day, just to set the tone for the year. I would watch USC in the Rose Bowl if I were home but I'd rather be up in the high, lonely places.

Take care all, and may the new year be good to you.

Pete.

    No chukars down here either, Pete.

    This could be the start of a great year! Or not.

    Drive carefully.

    Pete: happy new year and good luck! That's beautiful country up there, although I have never tried hunting in that area. Ever been to the Green Church hot springs? Would imagine that would feel pretty good after a day of chasing chukar.

    best
