6 years and counting for our annual NoDak trip.

This year chickenmuscle102 joined us.

drove through the night on Wed. the 11th.. only had to go through one snow storm.

on the pot holes by morning Thursday.

5 1/2 days of hunting..

not our worst trip, not our best..

plenty of fun, plenty of food, plenty of beer, plenty of whiskey.. plenty of memories...

Pics are:

*chickenmuscle, SwimSMU and Gauge after a morning hunt, long hike and LOTS of equipment
*Hobey on a long retrieve on a still morining
*SwimSMU and our buddy Eric Falls (the founding members of the trip) cooking some teriyaki, bacon-wrapped duck breasts
*a TEAM photo
*Hobey and SwimSMU after a LONG!!! nearly fatal retrieve attempt in a sleet storm

hunted every morning and evening, including tuesday morning before packing up and hittin' the road back. total of eleven hunts...shot at least two birds each hunt...never got shut-out.

took a total of 14 species, including one canada goose and one hooded merganser.

lots of fun...can't wait 'til next October!
