Kaye - 1933. NW part Kelsoe Valley, 4200 ft. - Nov. 29, 1933.- across the mountains and finally got it with a spectacular 500 yard shot across a canyon!! The buck was a fine 3 pointer. He dropped it about 2000 feet above the valley and about 6 miles from the house. Al and C who were to carry it down, got to it about half an hour before sundown. I gutted it and we tried to pole it down, but the canyon was so rocky brushy and steep that we couldn't carry the deer 100 feet. So I decided in the last few minutes to skin it, cut it in half and let each of us carry half of it down. I accordingly measured it and hurriedly skinned it all out ex- cept for the head and feet. We started down at dark and got in at 7:30. It snowed lightly all the way down. I made a poor job of skinning it. In the first place I didn't take time to skin off the "flank muscles" off the skin. In the second place Ray Atwood had cut its neck & I had gutted it
