Pendleton Stock Field Test

[Dinny]

1 DEC (Day 2): Snow flurries and an average temp of 34deg. The rain had stopped overnight but the damage was done. The creeks and small river had swelled and made several areas inaccessible for the type of hunting. No one (not even some of the dogs) enjoy crossing frigid, fast-moving waters several times a day. Two sets of other hunters took dogs in on the opposite mountain ridge from the day before. Again, my job was to watch for dogs crossing the road and running bears off that mountain. After a 3-4 hours hours everyone packed it in for the day and headed back to camp. That afternoon I drove to Monterey to check out the bustling metropolis. Anyone who knows Monterey, VA knows it's anything but a metropolis.
