Twas a balmy 8 degrees here this morning, and snowing. I roaded the dogs about 4 miles and BB took off into the trees, I went and checked and there were no tracks in the snow but BB's, but it was obvious he was following a scent trail of some sort, and he is fairly honest, so I turned in Danny and started following with Mudd and Joe on a lead. After about a half mile BB and Danny both opened two or three times, then shut up and went on over the hill, still trailing. When I got to where they had opened, there were fresh tracks on top of the snow, so I turned in Mudd and Joe. I then followed them on over the top and across the little mesa and they were bayed at the bottom of a 20 ft rim. It would have been a perfect opportunity to take some good action pics because I was directly above the bay, but I had forgotten my camera at home. I did take a couple of pics after I got home.

Must have a been cold too! Me, younghoundsmen, and brinkdog caught 4 shoats this evening. We bayed a nice boar that weighed around 200 also. He kept breaking and we didn't have a bulldog to catch him.
