No kidding. I have a blacktail spot I like to check out but it's buried still. Rough going.

Been out at sea since january 9th, havent found any sheds floating around. Should be home roughly april 10th, at which point ill be taking a long chunk of time off. I expect ill find a couple sheds in the course of my lion / wolf / bear hunting activities from mid april through mid june, at which time ill get back on the boat until august bear season.

If they tried to call me in tomorrow id laugh. Just did 97 days. No interest in getting on a boat for a while. They could either pay me double or pound sand.

The funny side reminds me of a bad flame job some idiot teenager would put on his honda civic or mitsubishi eclipse back in the late 90s / early 2000s.

Found a crappy old chewed up moose shed and a crappy old chewed up elk shed. Didnt bother picking up the moose shed, as its junk and i have a lot of moose sheds, but i took the elk shed since its the second best one ive ever found, being as how ive only ever found one before this. Still its junk, so it will go outside in my "flower (weeds and old crappy sheds) bed"

I walked this trail may 100 times last year, and about 40 times other years., and over a dozen times this year
7,000foot elevation in a dark thick canyon, which goes nearly straight up to over 10,000 feet

I did also have the remnants of a moose shed 100 feet up the trail too.
