Hello everyone. As Jeff arrowed the last of Happy Camp’s bears late Monday night, it brought a close to our 2016 hunting season. After many hours of hard work, we were able to have a spectacular hunt.
Early this morning, Jeff, Bing and I left Happy Camp Ontario to gather their stands and I cleaned up the bait sites. As I drove out of the hunting area, I slowed and thought for a moment about all the wonderful memories we had this year!
Henry wandering down the trail looking for me as he started out our season! Donna saying, bring the sled as she brought her beast to its knees! The sweat, hornets and group track and drag on Tim’s enormous Bear! To have the many laughs, talks, sweats and cussing that make Bear Camp special, it is over so fast!
As Henry and I traveled out Sunday night talking about Bing’s bear, Henry said, you know it is not all about the hunt, but the people, nature, wilderness and all that encompasses us when we descend upon Happy Camp for Bear Camp is what is all about! Well said Henry, well said! As Henry, Bonnie and Buddy loaded the truck on Monday morning, the sadness came over their faces and even Buddy was somber as he said goodbye!
So as we close our 4th Bear season, I have to stop and say thanks to all of you who continue to make our hunts so memorable. I also have to say Thanks to my Dad for instilling the drive to continually strive for perfection and Never Giving Up! After all, who knows what is right around the next bush, tree, log or under that cedar tree, right Henry!
As we look to the future, we do not know what the MNR holds for our bear hunts, they have not given the go ahead for anything in 2017. But if we go ahead as we have, then we have our spots already filled and a couple on the waiting list, so if you are looking for an adventure of a lifetime, whatcha waiting for, shoot us an email or call us today to save your spot to Come and Catch the Good Life with Us at Happy Camp Ontario!!
