We are located on the eastern slopes of the Cascade Mountains, in the pristine
foothills of the Wenatchee Valley wilderness area. Here outdoor sports is a
major factor in our way of life. This includes hunting, fishing, downhill
skiing, cross-country skiing, all forms of water sports, golfing, target
shooting, skeet and trap shooting, bird watching, hiking and more.
I have a friend who even hunts for deer and elk antlers (called "shed"
hunting) using a great pair of binoculars. I myself have hunted deer and
elk with a custom sporterized Springfield 1903A3, 30-06 cal with a 40 year-old
Weaver K4 60B rifle scope. The rifle has a custom made "fiddleback maple"
"floating" stock and the brightest blueing I have ever seen. I have taken
deer, elk and bear with it.
My favorite part of the hunt is just being in the woods and the tracking
and stalking of deer and elk; that is where the challange is.
