Dogs getting a well deserved rest

I am laying down the shotgun and picking up the rifle. Time for moose hunting. Backcountry solitary moose hunting is tough work but the rewards are great. As I posted here before  before though the problem is not getting one but getting one where you can get him out. I use a canoe or boat to get them out. I hate road hunting and atv's. It usually takes a couple of days for me to get my animal out.

The bull pictured is one I shot a quite a few years ago miles from the nearest road.

I have an either sex licence but will not shoot a cow with a calf. 

We have a long moose season here it runs from the First Saturday of October to the last Sunday in January.  

I love moose beautiful animals to me and they are big part of my life. Like seeing them all year long. I was pretty close to a couple last week bird hunting
