High Hare Man after an outing onto the High Plateau in the Extreme Season

Monday, February 09, 2009 four brave hare hunters ventured onto the Allegheny Plateau in search of and to pay homage to the Omnipotent Snowshoe Hare.

"Old" Jim, Andy, myself and invited guest, Jim (Kaz) Kazmarek, out of New Bethlehem, PA, along with six (6) extreme hare hounds scoured an area East of Marienville without the red gods smiling upon our fortune. The bad part being, it was the same area where, last week we run a Hare for several hours. It was also the very same sight where we found the dead Hare, killed by a snowmobile, if you remember.

The Extreme Hounds did bawl around some but the Magnificent One was not to be found.

Even without finding a Hare the day was not lost. The weather being nothing but beautiful and with fellowship and friendship it was a great day.

The snowshoes were still a necessary item but the snow pack was melting quickly with temperatures near 50 degrees.

The only problems being encountered were the ice covered roads and slippery conditions of the back roads. We made it in and we made it out and had a good time. What more could you ask for?
