Surrounded WOLF! There is something about that word that reeks of wild places and lonely dark nights by the fire. The image of a dark wolf vaguely seen at the outer limits of the firelight, or the sound of a howling pack hunting in the night must have some kind of an atavistic memory in me because it somehow makes me feel vulnerable and alone.

Minnesota Black Bear Hunt It was the 12th day of the season, and already I had spent over 24 hours in my stand. The Labor Day Monday opening day had made it difficult to get any
extended time off, and I'd only been able to hunt 4 days. And the weather had not been very cooperative. I'd hunted in everything from 85+ degree heat wearing only thin cotton shorts and a tank beneath my camouflage netting to a
50 degree cold rain wearing several warm layers and a rain suit.
