F-Troop Est. 1968

Ok boys, lets make it easy for the Sploosh-cat! Who’s going to be present for opening day (10-20) activities in the big woods?

I’m in! (Leaddog)

So I’m confused, am I fined $50.00 or not. If so I need to know so I can go to the bank and get a hundred rolls of pennies. Don’t worry Polecat I’m just kidding. I don’t care if we cut firewood or not I’ll just be glad to beable to see you all again!

While picking blackberries last weekend Derrie and Canon ran into a black bear on the side of the driveway. So Polecat decides to put out the critter cam to get a few photo’s of the bear, he ends up getting some great shots of not just the bear! These photo’s should get you guys excited about the upcoming hunting season!

This is Derrie’s bear, he is off limits!

Derrie’s Bear is a regular visitor up at camp.

Fawn’s like blackberries too!

This little one better pack on some pounds, winter is coming!

All kinds of critters are after Derrie’s blackberries!

Woohoo! There are bucks in them der woods! Looks like this guy will be a small 4 pointer. Keep eating buddy!

Polecat said this guy is off limits this coming fall! 🙂

Pack on those pounds buddy!

This is a good sign for the up coming season!

Now we are talking boys!

A doe and two small fawn’s having a little snack.

Spotted with his trusty hound in tow!

It’s getting close boys, time to start the chatter?!

Rangers.  I just completed my first triathlon this past weekend.  600m swim, 15.5 mi bike, and 4 mi run in 1 hr 43 min 10 sec.  Overall finish of 100 out of 195.  Pretty good accomplishment.  Although a 66 year old women beat me by 21 seconds.  I did however whoop several “kids” in their 20’s.  You can see the time sheet at:

I am on page 3, 4th from the top.  In honor, there will be new badges available this fall for the first F-Troop triathlon.  It will be a 50m swim across the South Branch, a 6 mi hike back to camp, followed by several martoonis before dinner.  For those not up to the task, you could do it as a team.  Chip could start since he likes to head to the South Branch.  Polecat has already been swimming in the South Branch so he has a head start.  Steve M could be the martooni finisher.  – Probie
