My taxidermist called and needs the base I built for my life size brown bear mount. It's getting close. Can't wait to get that critter in the trophy room.

Dropped off the base Tuesday. That varmit is going to be huge. The base is 5'-4" square and will sit atop an 8' tall room in the corner of my trophy room. He will be coming down a slope of dirty snow, sticks, etc. on all fours, one foot up to show off the big mittens, mouth open to see the choppers, etc. It's gonna be cool. He say's about three weeks.

Cool Markt! Nothing like sharing the room with a large carnivore.
Talked to my taxy again today. The bear I killed was camped out on a moose kill and had it all buried with snow, sticks, dirt, etc. He is going to try and duplicate that look for the base. It's gonna be cool !
