I decided to post this in this section as I really wasn't sure where else to post it. @BRICKBURN or @AfricaHunting.com if you think it belongs somewhere else, please by all means redirect the thread there.
With each passing day now, I look forward to the end of the brutal heat here in Phoenix and......the start of my archery bull elk hunt in less than two weeks! So off my buddy and I go yesterday to get our camp setup. Kevin has a friend that offered to loan us her camper if we were willing to go move it from its summertime locale. Are you kidding? We're all over it. So off we go and get it and take it to our spot. Well actually it was an alternative spot as our first was already occupied. Well I'm actually glad we went to the alternative spot, but it was maddening at the same time.
Maddening because when we got there, this is what we found:
This was the crap left behind by some weekend campers sometime I'm guess in the las couple of weeks. Labels on the booze bottles were almost like new and wouldn't stay that way for long with the rain. This mess was about 30-40 yards from where we were setting up and it wasn't ours, but we cleaned it up anyway. I don't post this in an effort to pat myself on the back or anything like that. But I do hope that someone who is on the fence about hunting may see this and give hunters credit for caring about the environment.
If some such person sees this, we really did clean it up.....
