Badger's Last Lumberjack Camp Hunt
for this year...maybe.
It's been a couple weeks since this bad knee has kept me from THing and today after seeing Nana's button I just had to get out.
I decided on a nearby lumberjack camp that is partially plowed today. I've hunted this site dozens of times and always find something.
I picked a corner of the freshly plowed field and hunted just 90 minutes. It was a blast! Boy it felt good to have the Nautilus in my hand again.
Today I found remnants of 4 different pocket knives. The Jacks loved their pocket knives!
I only worked a small area about 10x20 feet but managed to pick up some relics of the past. It's funny but when I'm out there it's like I can almost hear the old lumberjacks and their horses.
NOTE: The lumberjack photo posted below is of the actual Jacks who worked this area.

That photo, is also very interesting, I think it had big wheels to make it easier to turn by hand and assist the wagon, just guessing
