apple trees are a great addition, protect them well as the deer will chew off every leaf if the trees are small

Don't let it consume your weekends. Make sure you set aside time to relax and enjoy the place. Take advantage of the guy while he is there, some of these guys charge for unloading the big equipment. Have fun!

I too am going to our camp today! Haven't been there since end of February. Yesterday it snowed, so I hope to see some good tracks near my trail cam. Will post (if there are any good ones) tonight. :girlcrazy:

Cool deal. I'm heading up on Monday for turkey hunting opening day. Good luck with the new place. What did you decide to do about a cabin?

nice goodluck! hope you come home with some birds. i have not decided on a cabin yet. im up in the air at the moment on that. Right now just focusing on getting the driveway in and these foodplots. Also have to start hanging my stands soon and would deff like to put a small pond in near the food plots. I am going to be planting Corn, Purple top Turnips and Biologic Maximum along with 10 more apple trees.

Just got back from my camp and checked the trail camera. I had several shots of a snowshoe rabbit, a coyote and several deer - all does. Here is a shot of one of the does.

Im the same way. Love going up but i'm starting to find out that with all the projects i want to do i'm starting to run out of time to just sit back and relax and enjoy nature.

Thats why on those occasional rained out days im not mad because i can relax without the feeling of wasting time

Great area here as well as where you are in the Finger Lakes. Besides hunting in the Adirondack PARK my son and I also hunt private farms between Seneca and Cayuga Lakes.
