June 2021 Photo of the Month Contest

The June 2021 WapitiTalk.com Photo of the Month Contest Theme is: “Home Away from Home”. Let’s see some pics of your elk camp.

1. One photo submission allowed per month, per member (yep, stinky MODs may enter a photo also).
2. Photo must relate to the monthly theme (or risk being disqualified).
3. Do not use photo editing software to enhance your photo. Just post the photo as it was taken with your camera, smart phone, trail cam, etc. You may have to resize some photos so they are accepted by the forum software; remember, photos can only be 800X600 pixels "MAX" for our forum.
4. You may use older photos you have on hand, but, do not submit a photo that has won a previous WT photo contest.
5. Any WT member may enter a photo they have taken or appear in.
6. Judging – WT members will vote on monthly photo submissions.
7. Contest period will normally end the last day of the month.
8. Winner must contact WapitiTalk1 via PM and provide mailing address for prize (your prize may be sent directly from a WT sponsor or from RJ).
9. Prizes will vary from month to month.
10. All monthly winners will be automatically entered into the "photo of the year" contest.

The prize for the June 2021 contest is (to be determined).

We woke up to this in Mid-September! In the middle of the night, the tent was sagging under that snow load and I started pushing it off. My brother thought we were under attack by a grizzly bear and got up with his shotgun!

Okay, its not an elk camp, its a spring bear camp. Sue me. My location right now. Found lots of sign in this area, but man is it a thick, nasty, difficult to hunt chunk of woods. Dont let the grassy field and barbed wire fence fool ya, its a jungle. Colville national forest north of the smackout. Plenty o' bears apparently, but it wont be easy to pull one out of here. Just give me a day or two without lightning storms and heavy rain, please.
After getting chased out of the woods by a storm yet again yesterday, i returned to my camp to find i had company. A soaking wet skunk. He came as close as 10 yards, seeming oblivious to my presence. I consider skunks a bad omen, for obvious reasons. This sucker hung around for a few hours, rooting through the wet grass for bugs i guess. At least he didnt seem inclined to be confrontational.

I hunt therefore I am. I fish therefore I lie.

teach them second to love their family
and third, teach them to hunt and fish,
and by the time they reach their teens, no dope peddler under the sun will ever teach them anything".
