So....How Cold Was It Today????? It Was So...

[John-Edmonton]

Woke up this morning for the third time. Finally some light outside and frost on the bedroom window. Should I or shouldn't go hunting today? The answer was YES! It was cold enough to freeze the nuts off a brass monkey (I ain't kidding, Google it)! But, my usual cut off for hunting is -15C + a deep desire to hunt, which was the case today. It's been about 2 weeks since I last hunted.....way too long!

I headed to one of my many favorite snow hills, and did a couple trips up and down the hill. The snow was anywhere from 4-5" to12", depending on the whether the snow was packed of not. I took the Scorpion Snow Stinger as my weapon of mass trash reduction today. I tucked a hot pack under the housing, slipped a wool sock on it then covered it with the camo cover. Worked like a charm.

I thought I was the only nut case on the hill, but I was joined by others too.

Well my Snow Stinger lasted longer then I did. I was getting small icicles on my mustache and beard.....a logical explanation that some warm temperatures are needed soon. I headed out to one of my favorite hamburg places "HARVEY'S" and had a couple of grilled burgers and onion rings. A darn good meal it was.

And I was surprised to get as much loot as I did. Check it out below.

You gotta be keen hey John. You should be here in Canberra Australia where we are enjoying a COOL 39 degrees C (102.2 degrees F) bush fires everywhere and we are not into the hot part of summer yet.
Have a great Christmas.

Cheers,

I have to say john you are one hard core treasure hunter, it shows that you
have this hobby in your blood to keep you going strong, or is it that little voice in your
head that says get up and get out there...
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
