I think I'm going to make this entry my official property log, this way I can record how the properties were when I visited them. Today I went to Recycle. I will try and update this when I visit each property. Below is the Summary:
Sunset 1: This is a pretty big, and nice piece of property. Now I know why it's the most hunted. I walked down the hill and entered a nice field...at the edge of the field I saw a bunch of tracks. I was afraid of getting too ticky so I didn't go too far in...(and to be honest, the parade bear certainly was in my mind). I started walking towards the end of the field and started to get bottled up near the rivers and saw this mangy looking thing walking on the other side. It was hunchbacked looking, looked sort of bald...dark in color. Almost like a coyote with no hair...or one of those things from lion king. This peice of property had a lot of promise though. If I had to go in on opening morning, I would make my way to the left of the field, where the field meets the river.
Sunset 2: This is a small peice. The back is a pond/stream and it's bordering the crazies. It wasn't anything to really write home about other than it was pretty. I didn't see any sign of deer. It did have a path going through it as though kids walk through or ride bikes through it all the time...think Walnut Street.
Court/Work: This is a small peice that reminds me of a dump. Not much there.
Recycle: This is a nice peice that runs up the powerlines. I saw some nice promising runs, a lot of acorn trees and I saw a doe walking through the property. Didn't spook her too badly either. If I had to hunt here on opening morning, I would walk up the power lines to the double thingy on my right...then cut in on the left.
Briarcliff: Took a walk around Briarcliff today (5/23/08). It was a really nice peice...it has a walking trail that when you follow it, takes you to Recycle. I went up the trail to the powerlines and saw a deer walking towards Recycle. I turned around (didn't cross the field) and walked in and around the woods. I really didn't see much sign, maybe a few runs, but mostly it was just woods with turned up leaves.
Sun Valley: Took a really short walk on this today (5/28). I didn't even really walk to far in to the woods. It's not as big as I had thought by looking at the map. More on it later when I can walk it.
Community court: I suppose I was half-way between pool and court today (5/30). I parked in the parking lot up by the pool and walked into the woods on the parking lot. There really isn't much space there...houses as soon as you get in the woods. I walked the perimiter of the lot and followed some tracks and saw some droppings. I followed it around and there was some nice woods near the road...I think it's far enough from houses (right on the road however) . Then I walked behind the pool...see below
Community pool: Walked behind the pool and it buts up to the lake with a small walk through opening. It was mushy but there were a ton of tracks there. I didn't walk up in to the woods there, but stopped at the walk through. It would be a great spot if it wasn't too close to the pool house...i'll have to check that out.
