Had a nice hunt last Saturday up high with Finn... cold up there, 15-20 or so, but we made a couple stops and had some great time together. No deer spotted, but we did find just-made tracks from a young mountain lion that was coming our way down the gated logging road. It stopped short in its tracks, hopped up to the up-slope side of the road, walked away from us for about 60 yards in the brush, then back onto the road and right back down its tracks the way it had just come. The third photo shows Finn's hand next to it for scale.
We didn't push it too hard.... but had a great afternoon that we wrapped up with a thermos of hot chocolate back at the truck and dinner back in town (all-day breakfast topped off with a shared slice of pumpkin pie). Can't beat it.
