Having just read about this expedition the food eaten was a story in itself. If they could get it 8-9 pounds of meat a day per man. I bet Sacagawea could put it away too. You've heard of food like this before I'm sure. The braised pooch and antelope kidney are mine. Reading the names of the choices damn near makes me hungry.
I've never eaten buffalo hump but have eaten my share of buffalo and it's real good as is most of the rest but there's something about antelope for me. Catching trout is what fishing is to me as I'm not that fond of their taste. Big browns are very good.
We got one smarty pants out there because it was dog these men enjoyed more than anything else pass all.
The best trout I have ever eaten was cooked over the campfire at Turkey Creek Lake, 13 miles into the Weminuche Wilderness.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to say I did not buy a fishing license this year. I should probably be beaten.
ReplyDeleteHeh.

I'm too young and I guess there should be happiness there. I had a dollar in my hand along with a big smile but that magic # is 64.
ReplyDeleteGreat header...but then you know I love horses. Hey...I forgot! I don't like this post...just thinkin about eating dog hurts my heart. I really don't care for trout. Give me walleye and crappie...:)
ReplyDeleteSorry bout that. You have walleye??
ReplyDeleteYep...believe it or not, we have walleye in Kansas. Below the spillways. Wonder if I can find the ole picture of the first walleye I caught??? It was huge...but then that's a fish story isn't it??? hahaha
