Trail Pics

[Marc St Louis]

I don't have a trail cam but here are some pictures I took yesterday.  The first picture is some tracks compared to some average size Deer tracks.  The second pictures is not just tracks but a trail and that is right beside my Deer stand.  The last picture shows the first shooting lane that any of the animals using that trail comes across.  The second pictures was taken 20 feet from where I was taking this last picture.  Should be an interesting Fall

Looks like a well used trial Marc, best of luck to you, hope ya don't end up with track soup eh

Not the first time I have seen Moose tracks around my house and it won't be the last.  I forgot to mention my tree stand is about 200 yards from the house. 

I won't be going out with expectations.  I will be going out to enjoy the moment though

Your trail cam is about as fancy as mine.  I really enjoy trying to speculate from the tracks what I'm going to see.  I don't think I will see the moose.    I sure would like too. Justin

  Nice pictures Marc. I've got a trail Cam set up but haven't checked the pictures or battery in three weeks. The son in-law insisted I use his since he couldn't hunt this year. It is more trouble to me then it's worth, I like waiting for the suprise.

Trail look worn out to me,some thick stuff up there. Shoot straight.

Looks like a deer interstate to me! Maybe traffic will get backed up and you can thin them out some...

Wow, that does look like a good trail. But about the tree stand ? and the white bucket? Dang....that sticks out like a sore thumb.

There's no Deer using that trail.  What made that trail is a lo bigger than Deer.

My stand needs work. It used to be a good size Spruce tree until a massive storm took the top off a couple years ago.  If an animal gets used to seeing something odd, like that bucket, then it becomes part of the scenery to them.  The bucket is going though.

Hard to judge the size of the track wih no reference. I thought it was a  big deer track too

Never saw a moose in the wild, would be great if I saw one some day...

If you look at the first picture you can see a set of older Deer tracks between the 2 fresh Moose tracks.  The Deer tracks are not of a big Deer but they're not of a small one either

 The first time I had a moose walk up on me in a bog in Maine, I liked to crapped my pants when I saw how big they were.

There are some European moose in a deer park nearby, they are nowhere near as big as the biggest north American moose, but they are BIG. The biggest redstags look like toys in comparison. It's fascinating how they can hide behind a small bush and you just don't see them eventhough you know they are there.

I've been quite close to Moose many times, in some cases within bow range.  I've never arrowed one though.
