The picture above is the Gte 31 boat launch area. The picture was taken the day after close of the 2016 fishing season. The area looked quite different this morning with the snow.
I hiked in several miles to check on my trail cameras. I did see a flock of mallards, a king fisher and one barred owl. Coyote tracks were plentiful.
When I reached my trial cameras there was track activity around one camera and nothing around the second camera. Wouldn't you know it ! The camera with the alkaline batteries was STONE DEAD and the tracks were made after the batteries died!
The camera with the lithium batteries still had a full charge but unfortunately there were not tracks in the area.

Put Out Two Trail Cameras
The bobcat pic above is another from last week I went back this morning in hopes of a repeat from last week. LOL not the case. I really wanted to check out how far away I took the bobcat pic. Using my range finder I was surprised the actual distance was 175 yards, I am very pleased with the picture turnout.
Not a lot going on this morning, I did see a small bear track I'll bet after t he snow tonight and the cold temps next week this little guy finds a den sight real fast.
Now that the hunt is over I put out two trail cameras this morning. With the cold temps next week the predators should be on the move . I put a set of lithium batteries on one of the cameras . It will be interesting to learn how much longer they last than standard alkaline batteries.
