Chapter 1091: Meet Again
Due to global warming, the snow cover in the snow-capped mountains will continue to decrease in the future of Glacier National Park. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the late nineties, this is just happening, and you can still see large areas of snow-capped mountains.
It is called Glacier National Park because of the many snow-capped mountains that are covered with snow all year round and have sharp edges.
It was in May, after a few months of closure, the park was just opened to the public, and after several months of restoration, the surrounding nature is quite beautiful.
It is not as colorful as Yellowstone, but it has a tranquility and harmony that Yellowstone does not have, like a paradise on earth, with small flowers of various colors blooming on the roadside and many plant species.
After walking a short distance, you can see a waterfall flowing down from the valley between the two peaks, splashing into the clear water, and you can see some trout swimming in the lake......
"Look at the woods over there, why are all the trees dead?"
Surprised to find a very discordant gray in the distance, all of which was wood with only the trunk of a tree remaining, Old John asked in surprise.
After reading it, Han Xuan replied to him: "Maybe it's because of a mountain fire."
I remember last autumn when the TV station reported that it was extinguished in time. ”
His father continued: "Let's go and see, these places are blocked by grass, and you can't see the traces of your prey, and there is a wide view there......"
Since entering Glacier National Park, they haven't fired a single shot.
Halfway through, I met several young Canadian hunters.
The other party was mostly teenagers, who did not use guns, but bows and arrows, probably hunting enthusiasts of some club, with a uniform logo on their chests.
They were very happy to see the Han family, and they shook hands and greeted each other, with a very respectful attitude.
The old man smiled and asked, "How was the harvest, did you hunt the prey?"
"It's not bad, we hunted a bighorn sheep in the morning, and we have sent it back to the camp.
I came out just now and hunted three pheasants, and now I'm ready to go back, and I can't eat any more. ”
Among the people on the other side, a young white man about eighteen or nineteen years old with freckles on his face said with a smile:
"If you want to hunt, you can go west, where there is more prey, and there is a flock of bighorn sheep that have not gone there. ”
"We got a license to only hunt male wild boars, not bighorn sheep, do you know where there are wild boars?"
Hearing Han Xuan's inquiry, the other party frowned in distress, thought about it and shook his head and replied, "I haven't seen wild boars, and their number in Glacier National Park is relatively small.
If you're going to be here for a long time, you might want to try it out on the other side of Waterton Lake......"
After that, at the request of the other party, they left a group photo together and continued on the road.
Although this is a small road, there are also many tourists, and the number of prey is not much, at this moment Han Xuan saw a hare grazing, and was about to shoot, and suddenly found that it was followed by several gray rabbit babies, so he let it go.
Straight into the burned woods, the ground is soft and leaves many animal footprints.
I also accidentally came across the carcass of a bighorn sheep, which was almost eroded by microorganisms, and the head with funny horns, not only had large horns, but also very complete.
Feeling that it could be put in the room as an ornament, Han Xuan asked Gabriel to bring it with him, ready to find a lake to wash it up.
Gabriel grabbed the horn with one hand and pulled it hard, unscrewing the whole head off......
"Hey!
Wait, there's a colorful pheasant there!"
Old John suddenly lowered his voice and shouted, his tone a little excited.
Their luck today was not very good, and they didn't encounter much prey on the edge of Glacier Park.
"Dad, you're going to try?"
Han Qianshan often hunts, and the reason why he came today is mainly to accompany his old man, and when he found this good opportunity, he left it to his father.
When the old man heard this, he picked up his shotgun and loaded it.
Lowered his body and approached quietly, slowly raised his gun to aim, and the first shot hit the pheasant.
There is only about fifteen meters between the two, and it is still a shotgun, so it is strange that it will not hit.
The old man was triumphant, and his personal bodyguard Lopez trotted to pick up the colorful pheasant, carrying it and saying, "It's getting dark."
Maybe we should keep it for food and take the bullets out of our bodies, but it's a bit more troublesome. ”
"Then keep it.
Let's find out where a pheasant is enough to eat......"
In the evening, the number of animals increases.
One after another, they found prey that could be hunted, and a total of three hares and five pheasants were hit, among which there was a hare, which was Han Xuan's prey.
Pooh, Obama, and the Panther, who didn't have a chance to shoot today, acted as "radar", using their keen sense of smell to help find prey.
When the sun was about to set, I found a place to start setting up my tent.
There were a lot of people who came this time, and the division of labor helped quickly, and they were all busy before dark, lighting charcoal and preparing for barbecue.
I don't know if Han Xuan and them were unlucky, or the black smuggler named Ou Di was unlucky, and the two parties met.
As soon as Ou Di came out of the forest, he found that many big men were looking at him vigilantly, his eyes scanning Han Xuan and the others, his expression was slightly surprised.
He raised his hands to show harmlessness and said with a smile: "I'm a tourist from Canada."
I just saw you burning a fire here, can you let me stay for the night, and I can give you the gun for safekeeping. ”
Han Qianshan didn't think much about it, and beckoned with a smile: "Come here, the temperature is starting to get lower, let's roast together, and I still have whiskey."
These rabbits are almost ripe, you're in luck, man......"
Lopez's bodyguard took out a revolver from behind Odi's waist and patted him on him, signaling that he could pass.
After taking off his bag, Odie went to sit cross-legged by the fire and placed it beside him.
He was also an alcoholic, and when he saw the whiskey Han Qianshan was taking, his eyes lit up, and he swallowed the words that he was about to excuse himself.
Odie didn't notice that a big stupid bear lying on the grass was blinking its little eyes, and its black nose moved, and it smelled the familiar smell again, and it was quite curious about what it was.
I have to say that Odie, as a professional smuggler, is very bold.
However, there is no way to do it, as Glacier National Park is infested with ferocious beasts at night, and the inspection team occasionally raids visitors' luggage.
I just happened to meet Han Xuan and them, I believe that no customs personnel will come to check on these people, the most dangerous place is also the safest place, not only the Chinese understand this truth.
There were dark clouds in the sky tonight, but luckily it didn't rain.
They have to get up early tomorrow, and they will have to travel a long way, and Han Xuan and they go to bed early in order to save their strength.
Pooh and Obama muttered something to the other person, wondering how they understood each other's language, and in the middle of the night, the Kodiak Island brown bear crept outside Odie's tent.
Hold the zipper with two paws, hang your tongue to your mouth, look serious, and quietly unzip the zipper little by little.
Gabriel was on the sentry, and when he saw this scene unexpectedly, he came to see what Pooh was doing...... (To be continued.) )
