For deer and elk hunting, I usually just hunt from my house (after a little drive). Occasionally, it's fun to rent a Forest Service cabin for about $35 a night and share it with friends. These are usually rather primitive, but one time we got one that had electricity - a fridge and range - we lived it up that time with steaks, lasagna, you name it.You're right, life is good. Except, unlike you, in my case, my 34 year old son never got interested in hunting. I'd think I was a failure as dad, but this young man is about as nice a guy as you'll ever meet (and everyone tells me that). Still, I'm jealous that your son hunts with you.
i hunt out of my car and tent all the time but i love those cabins your talking bout..we got the same set up in the state parks upstate.Used to belong to a deer camp that slept 13 and was all propane.had tree stands all over etc.but the old timers decieded to sell without asking any of the younger guys.
