Outside a cabin we stayed at many years ago in Western Maryland Savage River area in Fall. Gourmet resturaunt and 5 star chef, about 6-7 cabins with porches and vary in occupancy....Maryland's best waterfalls minutes away in Fall! Not "haughty-totty" and reasonable. State Park.
This was a porch ornament....oh...warm fresh muffins outside your cabin door every morning.

That be a leg-hold trap with what appears to be lichens growing on it, probably for raccoon, or muskrat, Dan'l!

Well it was courtesy of the Maryland Parks system and Savage River Inn..I am not a fan of "trapping", and I know that is not your remarks "reflection", any creature but the past reminds us of our "upbringing from colonial times".
Thanks!

Hate traps, love the image. Excellent detail, beautiful textures, great tones. I suppose it's better to see an unused trap hanging like this than out in the woods on an animal's leg. I have 80 acres of wooded land in the Michigan Upper Peninsula and several years ago I found a series of traps laid along a small stream that runs through the property, which is posted. The traps did not survive.

Thank you very much Brent! I concur on the "missing traps." I would have done the exact same thing. I guess "back in the day" this was a major livelihood.
Today the animal population has decreased and these traps only cripple them.
Thanks brother!
