P.A. Kelly 1986 packed his photo equipment and headed for Hastings. When he arrived it was getting quite dark. He set up an infra red trip beam across the carcass, used twin Vivitar flashes and a 200mm len. on his Nikon (placed on Robertson Creek Side of the Road). Nov. 30 6.20am I am and I checked the carcass & camera. 8 shots had been taken. I finished my roll of Kodachrome 64 (3c) on the scene. The I.R. set up would not function properly anymore so I an dismantled all his gear. Cathy and I came back to the scene around lunchtime and took(6) plaster casts from the best pug marks. We also took a loobrat cast as well. I also skinned this deer's neck. Nov. 31 I called Hastings and asked Mark Stanback to remove the head of the deer and to freeze it for me. A few days later. Heard from Ian that we got 3 shots of an adult lioness and 3 of a mid-sized cub. We plan to publish a pictorial essay. Nat. History Perhaps.
