Sounds like you are making great use of that camper - you should have a great trip. I saw tons of sign around the Savage Campground, and heard of numerous sighting. This is where I saw my lynx. The Tek Campground area should be great as well - I have seen them near there in the past. I would love to go back just to work those forests. Have fun and let me know how it went. Ron Hi Tim,

I saw your note on NSN saying that the front of th park was exceptional when you visited. Dana and I are heading up there Tues- 2 nights in Riley due to lack of other options and then 3 in Tek. We're excited since you had such a good report. I may not even bother with the bus as I'm keen on spotting a lynx. Dana saw one last year in Sept during the lottery. Tim Hi Ron,

I hit a jackrabbit once at Point Reyes. He was fine though. Probably depends if it can leap over your car or not. Cute little bunnies Ron. I hit a jackrabbit once at Point Reyes. He was fine though.

Hi Beth, Thanks. I know what you are saying, it is unfortunate. I hope most of the dead ones were accidents, but you never know. I'm sure the buses hit a lot of them - they have a schedule to keep, and didn't seem to slow down as much as I did, so they probably couldn't help but hit some - I'm sure their passengers weren't happy when they did! Ron Thanks Paul!

To me it's pretty sad that a car would intentionally run over one of these cute critters. I know some are probably hit by mistake, but I've been in dozens of situations where I almost ran over an animal, & I was always able to avoid hitting one. I've been in the car before with people who don't even try to miss the animal. They just run right over it thinking it has no feelings. I have been in many heated discussions because of that. Hope these cute little critters don't become road kill. Stay safe, as always!! Great picture, Ron. To me it’s pretty sad that a car would intentionally run over one of these cute critters.

Oh and for photographers as well. Will look forward to seeing more snowshoe images. I guess it’s all good for the wolves as long as it lasts. Oh and for photographers as well.
