Hey guys,just got back from a two day hunt with a few other SoCal Airgunners.We left very early Friday morning and arrived in the forest by 7:00am with the forecast calling for a very hot weekend.The area we chose for the hunt was in the foothills of the Sequoia forest and offered a very secluded private hunting location with target rich GS and Cottontail habitat.The spot we camped was in a huge valley with Oak trees,rocks and rivers flowing on several sides offering a large abundance of animal and plant life.SteveO and I did a big hunt here in the beginning of Spring so we were both very familiar with the hotspots and the lay of the land that stretches for several thousand acres.Most of the area is untouched by hunting pressure as the location is hidden and in very rough terrain and in winter almost impossible to reach.After showing TleVta,LeftyMadrid and RayK a few of the spots we all set out to hunt throughout the area.By this time it was approaching the high 80s and only getting hotter up over 100 degrees by 1:00.Within several min of hunting I had already killed several GS and I could hear the catcher mit sound in the distance of others having some luck as well.After several hours of hunting we all eventually ended back at camp where we were sheltered from the heat with the canopy of pine trees our campsite was nestled under.We sat around talking about our shots,drinking loads of water and having our lunch.The hunting was a bit slow and it was much to hot to be wandering around so Terry set up some targets at various ranges for us all to shoot and plink at.RayK and Jessi had brought several very cool guns for us all to shoot and have some fun with.I was perfectly content sitting in the shade with a nice cold soda and shooting at a bottle I had placed at 137yrds..Was nice to have the time to just have fun with some very cool group of Airgunners! Around 5:00pm we decided to all head out again and was pleasantly surprised by how many GS were out and about,I managed to get 13 by the days end with the total between all of us being in the 30s.Around 6:30pm we all headed back to set up our tents and to place out our chairs to just relax and enjoy each others company,still hot around 88degrees.As the night came it became a bit cooler and being so far from any light pollution offered an amazing view of the stars.The heat had exhausted me just enough that day to make sleeping in it easier than I though it would be,by 3:30am it was a low of 77degrees.We all got up fairly early and set out to hunt where RayK made a nice Cottontail kill at around 35yrds.Everyone by this time was having great luck,Jessi got 4GS and a Cottontail as well.We hiked around and each seemed to be finding more and more active areas,Ray and I hiked around and found a very active area where I was able to take 5 of them.Terry was doing well too with a nice kill on several GS and Cottontail with his double tube Prod.By this time it was getting hot again so we all decided to pack up and make the long journey back up and out of the valley.This was one of the most memorable trips of my life and will never forget the great time we all shared together.Thanks for checking out the post and I apologize for the unedited photos but there were simply to many to go through,here are my favorites!
