Pine Donkey

That's a great deer. I love her smile in the picture! Congratulations.

I just had to chase about 10 of them off the front porch. They were digging in my wife's flower pots and driving the dogs crazy.

In 1879 my great, great grand father on my mothers side came to Arizona, and Cochise County as a Taylor for the army. In 1880 my great great grandparents on my fathers side came to Tombstone because the mines in Leadville Colorado were playing out. This makes me 5th generation Arizonan and Cochise county on both sides of the family. I married a third generation Arizona girl so and we have three 6th generation Arizona kids. No grand kids yet, but hopefully it won't be too long.

I jut love all these stories about youth having a great and successful hunts. What a nice buck. Congratulations Jackson!

Lark, you are so right, we are amis ...happy Valentines Day Amanda.

+1 Redman She had an incredible gift from God in one of the greatest voices ever. However she made the choice to live her life much like a tweeter who dies in a city park. Nothing to celebrate or memorialize here, just another dead drug user. Drugs don't care about talent, money, race, religion or anything else. Once a person chooses to hand their life over to drugs, they often never escape. Those who do are the onese who should be celebrated.

From what I hear, when you shoot a coyote they usually drop their bundle of drugs.

That's a good looking bull. Congratulations.

I love those lion kill! Thanks for posting the story and pictures.

Nice spot you have there. Thanks for posting some pictures.

Wow, that looks great. Originally were the antlers chalky or just white?

Looks great.

Amanda, mcelkhunter had a pop-up very similar to that on. Next week, while sitting around the fire with something cold and sudsy I will tell you about the time he got stuck inside the trailer. It's a good story that has been shared around many campfires by our hunting group.

Thats a bunch of success on some pretty low percentage hunts. Congratulations.

This is going to produce some "hot" posts in the future! Hopefully once it is known that these are out there, maybe camera theft will slow down.

Great finds!

Coach, great post. You gotta love all the kids and their success. Congratulations to all.

For some people hunting is what they do, for me, it is who I am. Hunting is a part of me just as much as much as my skin color, my eye color, and my rapidly balding hairline.

Great to see a coupe died deer eaters. Look at that full belly on the second one! Congratulations to all involved.

Great job Jared. Congratulations on taking a nice pig with a very good shot.

Bill, your point is right on, change is inevitable. Change is a continuous process, but it does not always travel in the same direction. Currently the Santa Rita's comprise a vast area of natural habitat with very few residents. Although there has been encroachment from Tucson, Nogales and even Sonoita, very few people live in the actual mountains. Much of what is now seen as untouched natural habitat had actually been enhabited by thousands of people over the last century and a half. The Santa Rita's has been home to many towns that no longer exist. These include Graterville, Placerville, Helvitia, Solerno, Kentucky Camp, and of course Rosemont. The town of Rosemont existed because of the Rosemont mines. This mining operation was extensive and even included a smelter. Below is a short description of Rosemont from ghost towns.com: Rosemont's post office was established September 27, 1894 and discontinued May 31, 1910. Rosemont owed its existence to a copper mine of the same name. The town had about 150 residents and its own smelter. The original owners, L.J. Rose and William B. McCleary, went heavily into debt and sold the mine to the Lewisohn brothers of New York City. They continued to work the mine for years until they played out. Today, nothing is really left of the town.
