This property is a process in the making. It is so much more than a hunting property. It gets used 12 months of the year for various pursuits as you will see by the pictures. Feel free to fire away if you have any questions.

Happy to see you back posting Trapper. Your place looks good.
 
Happy to see you back posting Trapper. Your place looks good.
Thanks bueller, I joined in May which is the busiest time of the year for me with the landscaping and Gardencenter company and I just didn't get back into it when the season slowed down. Besides I really didn't want to deal with a few of the others that tagged along from the other site, but I noticed they are no longer here. Its good to be back and see all the good guys names that are here.
 
Wow! Nice work!
 
The fruit! Wow! How many acres and how long have you owned it?
 
Beautiful place. Looks like a lot of hard work over the years. Did you dig the pond with the ducks or is it natural?
 
Awesome place...I want to hear more about the pond too!
Is that creek/river running through your place? Very scenic property.
 
Great pics! Is it possible to “like” an entire thread?

Hi Kooch, I have 40 acres at one location and have been leasing 80 next door to that for 18 years. I also have a small 5 acre piece where the river runs through and I have the cabin on. This July I will have owned the 40 for 21 years.

It is a natural backup of Spring run off with a few tweaks that I did. I also felled a few trees for the ducks to sit on and for trail cam opportunities.

The River that runs through it is a class 1 trout stream, yes very scenic. It is located on the 5 acres that the Cabin sits on. 5 acres with 600 feet of River frontage in 1974 went for $1,900, yes $1,900. But I was earning only $2.75/Hr then also.
Thanks, Trapper

Really nice place you've built there!
 
Hi Kooch, I have 40 acres at one location and have been leasing 80 next door to that for 18 years. I also have a small 5 acre piece where the river runs through and I have the cabin on. This July I will have owned the 40 for 21 years.

Thanks. The reason I asked about the length of time was just to gauge all the progress you've made against mine. Kind of wondering what that amount of improvement takes in terms of time. Again, nifty place.

Trapper ... glad to see you active and posting here again! Yes, the coup is over and things stabilized to a good point.
