Hugh Shepard and son, Glenn,
Roman, stopped here Tuesday en-
route to Spotted Bear on a hunt
ing trip.
Also several hundred hunters
from various places and it seems
as many horses, and all the local
male population have taken to the
hills. Their bright scarlet hats,
caps and jackets, along with the
camp equipment, they make col
orful parade. Even though they
do not all return with the elk, deer
or bear they hope to get, it still
will be a grand vacation. The for
eSts and streams are beautiful now
and the weather is ideal for camp
ing, though lacking of that track
ing snow. However, almost any
morning may change all of that.
Good luck to all the hunters,
says Martin City, and we will well
come you back again on the way
out.
