 No  I didn't, a 50 mile hike with boat on my back--didn't seam real feasible.
Only opener I have missed in 40 some years,other than 91 ,when we had 39 inches of snow.

I'm trapping, Set Saturday and checked Sunday. Had about 50 rats. Only got 30 home. After checking one area that I'm trapping, I loaded the canoe and my rats onto the truck. Drove a short distance, then unloaded the canoe and checked some more sets. While I was away, someone took a pail of rats out of my truck. I even considered putting the pails in the cab of my truck. But thought who would steal rats. I had a lot of fun, but it was ruined by someone's greed.
