• Cowboy hut at Loon Lake

    August 27, 2022 in Canada ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C

    A farm stay for two days in a Cowboy Hut built in 1942 near Loon Lake. We are close to the only desert in Canada. The area we drove through is very similar to the Northern Cape and the farm a nice mixture of karoo and lake.

    Kevin the owner has worked the farm for 24 years. The farm is surrounded by Queens Land (State land) and its wild. The hut is used by hunters in season and Kevin has the stories and trophies to match (Mountain lions and bears included)... the realities of a working farm in the middle of the wilderness. Two Ridgebacks run around to protect the house and horses.

    Kevin was a great source of info and our success ratio shot up. On 165km of hiking we have see 3 birds. This afternoon alone Roga pointed, bumped and flushed in excess of 10 birds.
