Best days of antler hunting this year yet

Kerrilyn, Alma, Saralyn and I went out Thursday evening after I got off work to go hiking. We hiked through a lot of snow and finally found a place where the deer would winter. After a short hike on the first bare hillside Alma found her first antler. We also found a fresh 2-point and a big 4-point from last year. The hike back was very cold, and Kerrilyn held Alma on her back most of way and I carried Saralyn in the backpack carrier. We finally made it back to the car at dark and were very tired. As soon as we got home we warmed up Saralyn because her feet were very cold and Alma took a warm bath and we had sausage, eggs, and hashbrowns for dinner. This definately was a hard hike, but a memorable experience for all of us. Alma and Saralyn are very proud of their finds (and so am I!).
