"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat." ---Theodore Roosevelt 1910

A Banner Year For Kevin (my nephew)

Manti Mountain Lion
San Juan Bruin


     My 16 yr old Nephew, Kevin, had a lucky year in drawing both a coveted Utah black bear and mountain lion permit. He harvested a giant 400lb boar on the San Juan this Spring and just recently he was able to harvest this dandy tom mountain lion up Ferron Canyon on the Manti.
