MORE FROM THE EXTREME SEASON



TALLY HO!


TO: ALL BIG WOODS HARE HUNTERS OF THE ALLEGHENY

Big Woods Hare Hunter Wayne Wilson (R) receives the official insignia from the High Hare Man of The High
Plateau.
Monday, March 2, was a great day on The High Plateau of The Allegheny. Wayne received his official insignia and is now a Big Woods Hare Hunter. We (Wayne, Andy, Kaz and myself) spent a good day in the Allegheny National Forest chasing a magnificent Snowshoe Hare. The hounds did a good job too.
Wednesday, Jim Hanson and I, ventured once again onto the High Plateau. The hounds tried their hardest without much luck.
Today, Thursday March 5, was once again the same story. We find tracks and sign but we cannot get the little rascals out and running. The snow pack is hard and there has not been any new snow since last Saturday.
Tomorrow looks like a day at the Bear Town Beagle Club chasing the Eastern Cottontail and training some young hounds.
Next outing is Saturday, March 7. We will be meeting at the Village Dinor in beautiful down town Marienville at 7:00 A.M. See you there or be square.
Fraternally,
Joe
