What a day... and we needed it!
I dont think anyone was able to view, but we had foxes running circles all over in the beginning. Hounds split once so MFH Jimmy and Hoppy stayed with one group that went toward the mushroom plant, and Dott and I picked up the other group that was heading toward the stone pile and brought them to Jimmys group. Soon after then the fox went to ground on the cliffs near Freemont.
After we picked all the hounds up we headed back to the where Dott and I stopped the hounds... at that point we got too far behind the fox to really run him well. From the Hogs Run side we headed over to Holy View and work the regular draw backwards...but, the River Fox wasnt home... We did get a fox heading back in the direction of the meet, and he gave up a pretty good run. All in all it was a really fun day, and a just perfectly beautiful day as well!
Hopefully we will get out Wednesday Oct. 6th, at Herr's Stone Lane at 8:30am
I'm thankful for all this rain... but its getting in the way of hunting haha!
