    Nice video. I have been going to that area since 1966. My dad had a camp on Wycoff run in the CCC camp area. I now have a camp near Wharton. This spring I was sitting on the front porch when about 20 elk walked directly in front of me. This year I went to the snake hunt festivities at the sportsman’s club for the first time since the 1980’s. That brought back many memories.

      Thanks for the recognition. Living in New Hampshire I was surprised when I learned we have rattlers here.
      I always thought of them being in airid dry places..like Texas etc..
      So my inquizzituve self did research on the Timber Rattlesnake and amazed at the history in this state.
      I've been out in the woods my whole life hunting,horse back riding etc..
      I know ive heard that rattle sound while out in the woods. But never thought of a Rattlesnake this far north...
      There's lots of Granite Rocky ledges for them to sun on. I enjoy watching the videos.
      I hope one day I will be lucky to come across one of these fine creatures in the wild....and treat it with respect it deserves..

    Some good-looking snakes and none of them looked like they were skipping any meals. I appreciate that you aren't killing them for sport, and you use the meat. The fish were even treated good. Keep respecting what nature has and your grandchildren will be able to enjoy it too. Nothing wrong with putting meat on the table but respect and enjoy what you don't eat. You have earned a new sub. I watched the video where something was snacking on the buck. Another good video and the little girl took it well when she seen it was a community meal.
