GUNFLINT TRAIL 2010 RUFFED GROUSE SEASON
In our last Blog entry we disputed the MN DNR prediction that the ruffed grouse hunting season in the Arrowhead region of MN would be down from the 2009 grouse hunting season. Local observations of ruffed grouse indicated, and we predicted, that the 2010 grouse hunting season should be good and not down as the Minnesota DNR had predicted, based on the DNR’s spring drumming counts.
Well, we were correct. The 2010 ruffed grouse hunting season has proven to be absolutely phenomenal. Grouse hunters at our Gunflint Trail resort in NE Minnesota are doing exceptional well and the ruffed grouse harvest is one of the best that we’ve ever seen. There are more grouse this year than anyone can remember in the recent past.
The MN ruffed grouse hunting season runs through 1/2/2011. However, you have only a couple of weeks left to come on up and hunt grouse at Hungry Jack Lodge, due to the fact that we will be closing on October 24th for a short break before we re-open for the 2010 – 2011 MN snowmobiling and Gunflint Trail ice fishing season on December 26th.
We suggest that you call now to reserve one of our northern MN log cabins before you end up missing the great ruffed grouse hunting that is in full swing right now in Gunflint Trail area of NE Minnesota. Online cabin reservations are available from our website. http://www.hungryjacklodge.com/ Or, Call us at (800) 338-1566 to make your cabin reservation and enjoy what remains of a great ruffed grouse hunting season.
