Went up to the lodge this weekend to do a little shed hunting. Turned out to be the only area in Alberta with snow! Took the quad out anyway to have a look around. Naturally, we took Bo and Max (our dogs) along. Stopped and walked a good trail but found no sheds.
Then went back to the quad and started down the pipeline again in search of a new game trail. Well, much to our surprise out walk two moose right in front of us. I guess they were as curious as we were! They stood there staring at us and we stopped and stared back. Max was running ahead of us and he stopped and turned back just as Bo, who had been following behind in the quad tracks up until then, swung around us and spotted the moose. Well, the race was on. She made a beeline for the moose, they ran into the brush, and Max followed Bo. The snow was quite deep so when we got to where the moose exited the pipeline path, Greg jumped off and ran after the dogs shouting at them to come back – to no avail. This was too much fun! So we had a small convey running through the woods — two huge moose, two excited dogs, and one not-so-happy shed hunter. Was quite the sight. Made my weekend! And all I had to do was sit on the quad and watch. FUN!
