Ryan got his Moose!

Ryan had a great 7 day hunting trip up in Canada with 3 other guys. He had many adventures! 1) one of the guys was bucked off his horse and broke his one rib in 3 places, bruised his heart and kidney and was helicoptered out to the hospital! The whole ordeal took 24 hours to get him out of the forest, to the hospital and finally he got to call his wife to tell her he was ok, but she had to go get him and bring him home where his is on bed rest for 2 wks! What a scare! 2) Ryan and the guys had a grizzly about 30 yards from them that actually stood up and did the scary grizzly thing! The guide Ryan was with stood up and yelled at the bear until it ran away. Ryan said he was never so scared as that moment! There were grizzly everywhere! They were always on the look out! There are tons more stories, but Ryan must tell them") We have about 400lbs of meat now and a nice 41" wide set of antlers! (The cape was cut to short so we don't have a head mount, but I'm ok with that") We haven't tried the meat yet, but I'm sure we will this weekend!

Hey Shelley! I just found your blog. Now I will be checking in more often. Sounds like an awesome hunting trip, although I am sure I would have peed myself if I ran into a bear. And I am positive that bear would have laughed at me when I pointed my little pea shooter 22 at him!
