I put this photobook together for my grandparents and also my hunting partners (Keith/Dad, and Larry). They don't know about it and havent seen it yet, so hopefully they dont lurk here too often! It took quite some time to put this all together. It was also a bit hard to shrink down the pages to a web format that wasn't too wide/big for most monitors. The hunt took place in May of this year, and it was truly a hunt and trip of a lifetime. All pictures were taken by me unless noted otherwise. Hope you enjoy! I will post the story in groups, cause its 50 pages long in total. Stay tuned to this thread if you are interested!

Thanks all. It ended up taking a lot more time than I expected to put all this together, so I am glad its appreciated.
Landrover, Camera was my Canon S90 point-n-shoot and my Canon 40D. When it was raining, I used the S90 a lot and was very pleased. If the rain let up, I busted out the 40D. By Alaska standards, we got lucky with the rain. tookeymonster, One of the guys on the trip used his recurve and he was the only person to not get a bear. He still had a great time. It can be done on this style of trip, but it won't be easy! Day 4 Page 18 ![]() Page 19 ![]() Page 20 ![]() Page 21 ![]() (note the skiff just off the shore) |

Man, great work... I used to hunt with your dad and Larry on a day lease in Lampasses...two very dedicated hunters and they were a real boost in my hunting life. Great to see them on the screen.

Thanks again everyone.
JayB, small world on the internet! They are some hunting fools and have been my hunting mentors also. I'll post up some old pics I have of the Lampasses place later in the week (I have to scan them!) Encinal, thanks again! I enjoyed your Africa hunt a lot also. Congrats on the Kudu and Leopard. Page 32 ![]() Page 33 ![]() *** They were about 250 yards or so away in this shot and the bear was over 500 yards. Its amazing how the depth can be lost at that range. Page 34 ![]() Page 35 ![]() Page 36 ![]() I'll post of the rest of the pics and story tomorrow! |
