Beach combing and deer hunting in July

[156821]

We just returned from a family vacation to Haida Gwaii. It was a great trip and thought it might interest some here.
My wife got to beach comb to her hearts content. The first beach we pulled up to had a dead whale on it. It was approx. 50’ long. It was crazy to see a creature of that size, even if it was dead!
I got some good deer hunting action in on the backroads and overgrown trails. My 2 boys got to experience their first time being a part of a successful hunt. Also my father in-law got his first deer at age 65.
Lots of great memories made by all involved.

It's so tiny! Lol

I haven't hunted Haida Gwaii but I've been lucky enough to hunt Texada a few times. They've also got wee little deer. Tasty though!

Yes they are on the small side. 15-20lbs of finished meat each. The fact you can be in possession of 5 and an annual quota of 15 makes up for it. Nothing better than fresh deer steak and eggs for breakfast.

Those deer look tiny and you've got a handsome family, congrats to you and thanks for sharing.
