BREAKING BONEs

I am so jealous... love all your postings of some great bone collecting. The only bone collecting I'm am doing is my own.

I try and get a head start with becoming familiar with the natural lay of the land for hunting in the late summer. I feel the best way is to winter scout the bedding areas of high monster muleys in rugged, cliff terrain is by air.

My winter scouting starts in late Dec and goes through Early April. I am jealous of all the great shed hunting going on right now and wish I could join. With little spare time... and making sure the wife has some sense of balance. I only get to go WINTER SCOUTING (Skiing)if its at 5:00am. Similar to hunting, with skiing I have a group of guys that go up early 5:00am to hike up to Mt. Superior or Cardiff Ridge or Flagstaff ridge across from Alta. Some time I have hiked up around Solitude and Brighton. Winter is similar to summer scouting and hunting. I get up there prior to sunlight so we can get great photo shots in the morning, just like looking for bucks at first light. Then in less than an hour... the light is gone and photo session or scouting session is over.

I am trying to cross-over a photographer to take some wildlife photos with me and accompany me into the mule deer and elk scene.

Anyway, keep up the year-long scouting anyway you can.

Find some bone instead of break it!

NOT to offended anyone... this year I did find a spike shed while hunting in Colorado. I think I have a world record going here.... What'd you think?

YELUM,

YOU PIONEER YOU....

Did you have release-able binding then? Are those x-c skis?

Just kidding. You have my upmost respect.

As to the earlier years.... Hell we have so much snow you could lawn dart your head into a flat landing and survive... Lets go up this week before it all settles in. Just remember we need someone to help pull you out of the snow drift.

GREAT...(do I say) Vintage Shots.

LOVE THE SPREAD EAGLE, BACK FLIP....

Again this posting... proves their are many ways to search for your own BROKEN Bones.

Any other Crazy Bone Breaking Bastards out there?

Vintage, ya thats it. :) K2 skis, solomon bindings. Do they still make those? The year was 1983, and we had pretty good snow that year as well. Lots of flooding in the spring.

As you can see from my middle pic, the powder was deep. My first atempt at a double resulted in a face plant, and if it were not for my skis hitting me in the back of the head, it would of been painless. lol My mom always said I'd break my neck skiing. Nope, did it on a motorcycle instead. :)

By the way, congrats on your great buck. Bring pictures to this years antlerfest in June.

Sounds great... You be sure and bring the NECKBRACE and we can all bid on it too. Love you stories too.

I'd love to hook up at Antlerfest. Do you think my shed will collect alot of attention?!?

I could use some gas money.

I can't wait to take a buck in late November and have to ski down with a rack on the pack.

GW I think that we have a mutual friend in Rob Holmes, those pics look like what been at Basin the past ten days. 80 inches of fresh!!!
 
Great Pics guys. You guys are NUTS!!! :):) I can't say I have any skiing pics like that. I was more into Backcountry Telemarking in my younger days. Once I got a job where I wear snowshoes 6 months of the year, the desire to strap skis on is no longer. Do have some pics somewhere of me jumping the company sleds somewhere though. :):)

Ladd,
Great to see ya back. Love the sheds posted in the contest. Way to Go!!!! Those are some killer pieces of Bone!!!!
