Buffalo Hunting at Pink Mountain

Here are more of Kent’s photos from his Buffalo hunting trip with his friend Terry. They stayed in the very small town of Pink Mountain where there is a motel and a general store. Apparently the water which came out the tap into the bathtub was brown. Terry said he couldn’t see his legs once he sat down in the water!

Each morning they drove about 15 miles to an area where they unloaded the ‘quads’ or snowmobiles and spent the day hunting various areas.

They never saw a single buffalo until Day 11 of the trip - when they finally discovered the way around the ranch. The ranch owner charges $175.00 per day for hunters to hunt on his property and they did not want to pay that as they had the means to travel quite long distances on the snowmobiles or quads.

They did see lots of this!

They came across the first herd of buffalo only 8 miles into their day - but the noisy snowmobiles scared the herd and they were gone. Another 20 miles or so and they finally found another herd. I don’t have a photo of the buffalo Terry shot, but here’s a sample of what they look like!
