"wild" Chukar hunt 10-18

[Wallydog]

At the top of the ridge we take a break after 1300' altitude gain. Today I'm sore and Jaeger can't move.

This fairly well describes how people have heart attacks!

The Snake River breaks.

One of 15 jakes we bumped right back near the truck.

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Great pics! Going after real chukars is one of my dream hunts.

awesome pics!

Can I ask where your GSP comes from? The solid back coloring, and solid head resembles a particular line of dogs where one of mine comes from.

Rund,

Thanks. We are fortunate to have some extremely good lines of GSP here in SW Idaho/Eastern Oregon. My Jaeger has plenty of "Jet" & "Abe". The color is fairly common in our country. I've had liver & white shorthairs since the mid 80's.

Feel free to holler if you want more details bout the line.

Does Jaeger have any Dunfur blood in him?

[Wallydog]

This kind of hunt is definatly on my list of "somedays".....

Thanks for sharing.

Dunfur is a kennel in Washington state. He has some big time trial dogs that have the same blood (I think) that you mention.

Great stuff Wallydog! I would surely need an inhaler for that walk.
