Spent last weekend in Northern WI for deer gun season. Spent Friday prepping, and Saturday and Sunday in stand hunting. Ended up not shooting anything, didn't see a buck I wanted to take (trying to get the smaller ones a little bit bigger to grow the herd) and the doe all had fawns with them. But we had great weather (warm, probably kept the big bucks away) and a blast. And yeah, part of that was because I get to screw around with my Jeep in the woods
A lot of my mods have been with hunting in mind; extra lighting for the early mornings/late nights (we are in stand by 5AM for 6AM sunrise, hunt until can no longer see), the tailgate light for working out in the woods, got the carrier for hauling random junk as well as hopefully a harvest, etc etc.
We hunt on ~100 acres my FIL owns which abuts a national forest. We have probably 8-10 different stands, 5 guys out there hunting the property.
Anyways, thought y'all might enjoy some of the pics I snapped over the weekend
Here's my hitch hauler (and my girls)

Our "hunting shack" where some of the harder-core guys sleep during the season, the rest of us commute in the 2 miles from the house, but we use it as a hangout during downtime and a home base. It's about 1/3rd lounge area with propane heater/stove, table, TV, etc, 1/3rd bunk room, and 1/3rd storage shed/staging spot for getting ready. We have a bunch of batteries as well as a small generator to power necessities like the TV for football

Various shots just parked in the woods (we had a logging crew put in a "road" a few years ago, most of the property is essentially fire road)
