An evening in 36B

[Ace High Benny]

Location: 36B / Campsite off Ruby Rd.

 

Overnight scouting trip Nov 17th to 18th.

 

Attendants: Just me, solo!

Arrival: 1447 Hours. Nov. 17th. Campsite organization

Evening scouting: 1530 - 1810 H

Return to campsite: 1836 H

Dinner: 1940 H

Activity: 2020 H. A strange looking dude walking on Ruby Rd. going east. He looked like he was going to fall on the ground any minute. I think I heard him say something like "money, money". I didn't understand whether he was giving away money or wanted some. In any event, he did not get off the road and approach my "territory". I was, coincidentally, standing behind the tent at that time and was watching his moves and his hands. You can guess where my hand was (I am a lefty).

Company: 2056 H. Saw first BP truck. Informed him of the above and invited the officer for leftovers. He declined as he had already eaten. Told me that he had "one in the cage" and that he was going to look for the one I told him about.

Trouble: 2146 H. My car died! I forgot that I had the portable fridge running in the back and that drained my battery. Waited patiently and calmly.

Solution: 2212 H saw BP going west. Stopped to help me. Called in his colleagues for jumper cables. They came in 10 minutes. Car was running again.

Conversation: 2225 H. BP asked me if I was alone. I said "yes". He then continued and said that I must have "a lot of guts and courage" to stay overnight alone.

 

BTW, they NEVER found that strange dude that night...and I did wake up, alive, at 0552 H on the morning of Nov. 18th.

 

I think it was more for "the others" to have the guts and courage to be in MY territory

 

Happy hunting!

Sounds like an eventful night... any luck finding some deer?

[Ace High Benny]

Just does!

 

However, I pinpointed a few spots where I'll be glassing during the hunt.

My family will be in Pena Blanca canyon or in Calabasas Hunting, I'm sure they wouldn't mind if you camped close to them. Or if you need any help. Look for motor homes and dune buggys. My name is Steve Lopez Good Luck

heard that BP shot an illegal last night north of Nogales, something about the illegal picking up a rock and getting ready to throw it at some agents so they shot him, did not kill him though, just wounded him. Perhaps it was that money dude

Knowing our system, the dude will sue and end up buying a nice 200 acre ranch in S. AZ...

[Ace High Benny]

...and thus he'll get his "money"..

 

Haha..here we go:)

Was the guy wearing a cheap suite. There is a crazy old prospector that runs around down that way. Lots of guys i gold prospect know of him.

[Ace High Benny]

He was wearing a plaid shirt, jeans and sneakers and was walking as he was drunk or ill or something...

I'm glad you returned safe.

 

Next time drop me a PM for scouting plans on 36B.

 

There's strength in numbers.

 

Unfortunately this year I will only be hunting the last 2 days 12/1 and 12/2.

 

Fridge is severely barren of deer, ran out of antelope a month ago.

Thanks for the offer Moose:)
