upand bird hunting

I spent the week guiding grouse and woodcock hunters at Libby Camps in the North Maine Woods. It is always a joy to work with other professionals delivering a great experience. There is nothing like visiting a sporting camp in Northern Maine. First the vastness of the country is always impressive, as is the almost complete silence when you are out in the woods. Meals are always an event and it is a hard job to not eat way more than I should. Not to mention desserts that are usually fresh baked and delicious.

During my time at Libby Camps both Matt Libby and I had a meeting of the task force on the deer herd in northern and eastern Maine to attend. We were able to schedule the meeting on a day when we were both off from guiding and were could travel together. Matt needed to take one of his floatplanes to the sea plan base near Bangor where the meeting was being held and was kind enough to offer to fly us down. A return ride to northern Maine was arranged.
