Hey Kat . These pictures portray the old vintage Woolrich Plaid Red wool hunters suits . Many companies supplied commission services to Woolrich over years to supply this product since its popularity and quality were wanted by the hunting industry . My family's business that started in 1869 supplied the dyed wool black and red for Woolrich . Boy does this bring back memories !
I have a complete suit that I bought off ebay a number of years back. I often wish it could talk and tell the story of it's adventures. Sadly, I can't fit in it and they outlawed the old red plaid in favor of Orange. These pictures are priceless but it's a shame everyone is gone now.
This is exactly what anti hunters do not get , there is so much more than the hunting that goes with this great tradition, the memories that guys have at hunting camps are NEVER forgotten, and that's what hunting camps make . Very well done again .
Thank you so much! I agree with you. This place was very special to my father, and to all of them. Thanks for stopping by, and for commenting m, I appreciate it.
My hunting camp time started in 1952 at age 5. Camp boy was my job until I was 8 then I started shooting partridge and rabbits. By 10 I was deer hunting in my green plaid, must have worked because I shot my 1st deer that year. I will never forget those times and all the people I met and hunted with. My family were great hunters and taught me all that was needed to make me the hunter I became. By the way that 1st deer was a nice 8 point.
Wow, what great memories! I remember seeing the green plaid as well. What wonderful memories you have. Thanks so much for sharing! I appreciate you stopping by.
Bought a tear to my eye, the faces might be different but I was there as a young boy with the grandpa’s and vets of ww11 the heart of camp was there.. now I’m almost 70 trying to teach my grandkids the same.. god bless you for sharing this..
Thank you Tim. Reading this warms my heart. I’m so glad you’re teaching your grandkids, and I’m glad you like the video. Thank you for stopping by and sharing. God Bless!
I remember seeing my Uncles and Grandpa wearing clothes like these. The Army/Navy store used to sell red and black and green and black hunting coats and pants every Fall. Great memories !
Started deer hunting in 1964, my dad would take me out of school the go deer hunting for a week. In lots of places School shut down for the opening week they knew boys would not be there anyway. This video brought back memories I had long forgotten. If there's one thing I learned as a young boy at deer camp, was to try and fall asleep first. Cuz once the old timers started snoring, you were out of luck. Thanks I really enjoyed the video.
@@charlesfredrick4789 Hahaha! Yes, the snoring!! Being a little girl, going to camp during hunting season wasn’t something we females did. But, my father was a very loud snorer!! 😊 With several of them snoring at the same time, it must of been interesting. I wonder if they had to wear ear plugs? 🙂 I am so glad you enjoyed this video, and I enjoyed you sharing your memories. Thank you for that!
You’re welcome. I’m so glad you enjoyed this. All the men in these hunting camp videos are gone now. But I remember the stories my dad used to tell and I remember him preparing for these hunting camp trips. Hang on to the good memories and thanks for stopping by!
There is such comfort looking at old pictures like these...time seems to stop and the feelings of home fill my heart. It reminds me of up north, my family farm, lots of great memories ❤God bless
Thank you ♥️ It was a different time, and I can remember my dad getting ready for these hunting trips when I was little. Growing up in the 1960’s (and when dad wasn’t working or hunting) I remember us going up to camp as a family to spend the day. No traffic, no electricity, no running water. It was beautiful up there. Great memories. Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you have a blessed day ♥️🙏🏼♥️
I think after the men at camp did the things they needed to do around the camp to maintain, it became a leisure after the work was done. It got busy when anyone got a deer, with plenty to do, but I know my dad loved going there and it was very quiet and peaceful. Thank you for commenting and stopping by.
Great share l remember my frist time in deer camp when l was a kid it’s not the same last 30 years hunt by myself and I’m starting to be getting old myself and I’ll be the last of then times when l pass away like all the rest of then have😢😢😢
Hi Randy, It’s sad to see all the changes that have taken place over the years. I grew up with my dad bringing home venison every season. Hang onto the fond memories you have my friend. God Bless!
My Dad, Uncle and Old Family Friend George are the people I grew up hunting with. All still alive but George (85) stopped hunting and gave me all his guns a few years ago. Dad & my Uncle both in their early 80s and both still hunt.
Thank you! That’s awesome that your mother’s from Maine. I don’t know that there’s as much hunting going on these days, but I’m glad there’s still some who continue with the tradition. Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you. When I do my editing I sometimes use the free music provided through the iMovie App on my phone. I can’t remember the name of this particular song but it’s one of my favorites for this type of video. I appreciate you stopping by.
A big piece of Americana that we’re rapidly losing! Great pics and memories! Woolrich, Winchester, Savage, just to name a few makers of the popular items used at the deer camps. Hunting camp was looked forward to all year til it came time. You can almost smell the smells and hear the talk and laughter, and feel the cold biting through. No other experience comes close to deer camp. Good stuff!👍🦌🇺🇸❤️
I agree, and thanks so much for sharing. I have many fond memories of my father preparing for his trip to the hunting camp. My sister and I always looked forward to dad coming home after his hunt. There was always something for our freezer and delicious venison meals to look forward to. Thank you for stopping by!
I see this I think of my old Man,he loved to hunt and I loved going with him! He left me in my early 20s!! I'm 58 now and have a camp in North Central Pa,think of him often!!
Thank you my friend. I remember watching my dad prepare for these hunting trips when I was little. It was such a peaceful place to visit on a family outing for the day, as well. Thank you for stopping by, and God Bless!
This is my family in Virginia hunting Craig County from the 60’s to today. I don’t go anymore but my brothers and nephew carry on the tradition. Loved Craig county and our mountains.
Hi Michael, I’m glad the tradition continues for your family. This group of men built this hunting camp back in 1948, and I’ll be sharing some pictures from that time as well. Hang on to your memories, and take care!
If I had a time machine I know where I would go. I would go there fast I would not go slow. When I reached my destination I would throw the key away and tell that time machine sorry I’m here to stay. 👌👌👌
Thanks for showing this. Never been to Maine. But I grew up hunting southeast ohio in late 70s and 80s .we had big deer 🦌 camps back then .love the memories 😊
Well heck I'm sorry I missed this one. You put these vids together so well Kat. The heart warming music paired with the soft flow of precious memories forever caught in time. Well done 👏
Oh Mrs Kat , thank you for sharing these wonderful picture of such great day go by . I can only imagine having a place like that to go and enjoy family and friends !!!
Thank you, I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed these. I have wonderful memories going there as a family, back when I was a young girl. This past Fall, my husband and I hiked in and it was nice to visit the same places that my ancestors were once at. My father loved it there. It was a very quiet, and peaceful place. I appreciate you stopping by to watch.
Wonderful look back.. thankfully, here in the south we continue the hunting tradition and hunting clubs and camps.. the plaid has changed to camo now, but the friendships you build remains the same..
This was great to watch. What I find interesting about deer camp is it brings together people from all walks of life. Life long friendships are made from the one thing in common which is hunting. Each year you look forward to seeing the same faces. Even if you haven't spoken in a year deer camp is like a time warp. Pick right up where you left off last year. Im part of a deer camp in allagash that goes back to the 60s. The third generation is due to take over organizing the annual logistics soon.
Good Morning! I remember my dad preparing for these hunting camp trips. He used to come home every season with a deer over the hood of his car, and a few a Christmas trees tied to the roof. You won’t see this on the Maine Turnpike today, I don’t believe 😊 Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing. I think it’s great that the next generation is interested too. Have a good season!
Thank you, i’m glad you liked it. I’m doing better (thankful the hot spell is gone), and the steps I’ve taken to better my health are helping. God Bless!
Enjoying this tremendously❤️Most those Men are gone but memories live on and Fellowship in Christ and creation is Eternal. I’ll be up in Rugged N Idaho hunting with old friends I have known since 1969’. We’re getting up there now. This hits Home🇺🇸 Maine is one state I plan on visiting in next few years. God Bless
Fascinating photographs Kat. And amazing that they repaired the road themselves if needed!! And woah that snow was deep sometimes!! The headgear was interesting and colourful. Nowadays there would be camouflage gear. Enjoyed watching this one 👍👍👍
Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed! I loved the styles back then, and I remember dad getting his woolens out, his lanterns, sleeping bag, etc. for these trips to camp, when I was little. I appreciate you stopping by and I hope you two have a blessed day!
What great special memories to have, i never went deer hunting with my dad, i was to young but i remember going out and getting firewood with him when i got older. Thanks for sharing. 😊
That sounds like a great memory with your dad 🙂 I remember my dad getting ready every season for his hunting trip. It was so important to him. Thanks so much for stopping by. Blessings to you both, my friend.
@@KatInTheNorth I can not find the email either, I am not sure what I did wrong, too much going on in our lives and it causes me to blunder or forget. I flooded the kitchen the other day because I forgot I was running water for the dishes! Lol I pray you are doing well , it is good to see you on you tube again🤗🩷
@@TeaTimeDevotionsWithMimi Thank you ♥️ I’m sorry to hear about the flooding. I’ve done that before 🤫 Was a long time ago, but it happens. I am doing alright, thank you. Slowing down and not spending much time online helps. The doctor said all is stable and to just continue on as I’m doing. I’m very thankful. God is good. Blessings to you and the family ♥️🙏🏼♥️
Thank you, at one time the red & black woolens were what most of the hunters wore. But now the hunters have to wear a bright orange. Thank you for stopping by!
Wow…such precious pictures that was lots of wonderful memories. Great to see totally different scenes from now. Very enjoyed watching ❤️👍👍Greetings from Color&Shawn 🤗🤗
Thank you Kat for this video!! We live in Rhode Island, and visit the great State of Maine as much as we can. So much history with the 100 plus year old sporting camps!
You’re welcome. I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. Maine has the best of both worlds doesn’t it? The mountains, woods, and ocean. Thanks so much for stopping by!
Memories of deer hunting in western and central New York, too. The Woolrich clothing also brings back the memories when every hunter in our acquaintances wore Woolrich jackets and hats; some even had the pants to match, including myself. But back then we in upstate NY were limited to using only shotguns with a single ball or slug. Many deer were taken via those shotguns which could be very accurate up to about 100 yards. Rifles are now legal for taking deer in Upstate, Central and Western NY
Hello, Kat! Thx for sharing these pics, really fun to see. I enjoyed reading about it in your description. Made me think of my dad. For most of his life he and some friends/relatives had a hunting cabin about an hour away. I guess these types of outings are somewhat dying out. Loved the old car photo. Never saw a natural refrigeratation like that. Hopefully bears couldn't get into it. We had a natural spring growing up, good fresh spring water, but it has long since been contaminated. God bless you and have a lovely evening.😊🧡🍂
Hi Misha, thanks so much for sharing your memories. There’s not too many camps around like this anymore. Most of the men in these videos were my relatives. My cousin gave me these slides, which I was able to digitalize individually. I love seeing how young they all were. I really appreciate you stopping by, and I hope you have a blessed weekend ♥️🙏🌻🍂🍁
My dad hunted (and fished and trapped and made shine (“bathtub gin” with his mother) in Maine in the 30’s, 40’s (except when he was in the USN during WWll) and 50’s
Thanks for sharing your memories! My dad was in the USN about the same time as yours. The hunting camp was one of the favorite places my father liked to go to, when he wanted to get away from it all. Thanks for stopping by!
Hi, as far as I know, the building is still standing, but the area has changed quite a bit. A lot of 4 wheelers and dirt bikes go through there all the time, so it’s not as peaceful. No housing development yet. If I’m able to hike in there I will get some video of it sometime before the snow flies. Thanks for asking.
I’m heading upta camp in a few weeks. We have lost our patriarch of camp this year. It’s going to be a solemn time for sure. On the bright side… we have our memories and our other camp mates. And I did get a doe tag. This one is for Grumps.
Back when boys learned how to be self sufficient. How to live off the land and use a firearm. It was a way for families and friends to bond. Some organizations frown on this today, because a self-sufficient man is truly a free man. We had a cabin and 100 acres everyone in the family would share. Good times.
Thank you! I appreciate your comments. These men fed their families on their harvests. The meat is so much better for you than what you find at the grocery store. Every deer hunting season, my father brought home a deer. It’s too bad some frown upon it.
Real American's here.........a time when men knew their guns, read their Bibles and attended Church and their handshake was as good as gold............
You bet! Thank you for providing us a trip down memory lane here! Video is a vivid reminder of how far we have fallen in this country. Serious times and dark days are ahead for America.......keep you eyes on Jesus Christ and make peace with God.........the battle between good and evil......darkness and light is intensifying......John 3:16, "For God so loved the world (you and me) that HE GAVE (he made a way for us) his only begotten son that WHOSOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHALL NOT PERISH....BUT WILL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE"! God Bless you my friend....@@KatInTheNorth

What great special memories to have, i never went deer hunting with my dad, i was to young but i remember going out and getting firewood with him when i got older. Thanks for sharing. 😊
That sounds like a great memory with your dad 🙂 I remember my dad getting ready every season for his hunting trip. It was so important to him. Thanks so much for stopping by. Blessings to you both, my friend.
Lovely memories, thank you so much for sharing this beautiful video. ❤

What a beautiful treasure of pictures♥️. I believe I seen your face in one of those men🤗
Thank you 🤗 I’m so glad you stopped in. I never got the email you sent me. Have a blessed week! ♥️🙏🏼♥️
@@KatInTheNorth oh goodness, I will have to check my emails and try and find out what happened.
@@KatInTheNorth I can not find the email either, I am not sure what I did wrong, too much going on in our lives and it causes me to blunder or forget. I flooded the kitchen the other day because I forgot I was running water for the dishes! Lol
I pray you are doing well , it is good to see you on you tube again🤗🩷
@@TeaTimeDevotionsWithMimi Thank you ♥️ I’m sorry to hear about the flooding. I’ve done that before 🤫 Was a long time ago, but it happens. I am doing alright, thank you. Slowing down and not spending much time online helps. The doctor said all is stable and to just continue on as I’m doing. I’m very thankful. God is good. Blessings to you and the family ♥️🙏🏼♥️
@@KatInTheNorth yes He is♥️
🤗🩷
Very nice video, ms Kat. I didn’t know red flannel outfit was the hunting gear during that time. Thanks for sharing. 😎👍🏼
Thank you, at one time the red & black woolens were what most of the hunters wore. But now the hunters have to wear a bright orange. Thank you for stopping by!
@@KatInTheNorth 👍🏼
No camo, no 24x scopes, no gps, no ballistic tips, just woodstoves and wool, a compass and a man! The way hunting should be!
Thanks! I agree!
Thank you Kat for this lovely video
You are so welcome! Thanks so much for stopping by my friend. Have a blessed week!
@@KatInTheNorth you as well thank you
Love these Kat. Thanks for putting this together. 🙂🕊
Thanks so much Jeff! I’m glad you enjoyed 🙂
Wow…such precious pictures that was lots of wonderful memories. Great to see totally different scenes from now. Very enjoyed watching ❤️👍👍Greetings from Color&Shawn 🤗🤗
Many thanks! I’m so glad you enjoyed it, and I appreciate you stopping by 🙂
Amazing, thank you for sharing. Does your family still own the camp?
It is owned by other members now. Thank you for watching.
Thank you Kat for this video!! We live in Rhode Island, and visit the great State of Maine as much as we can. So much history with the 100 plus year old sporting camps!
You’re welcome. I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. Maine has the best of both worlds doesn’t it? The mountains, woods, and ocean. Thanks so much for stopping by!
Wool rich rules ! Choice of real men & fashion icons.
Thank you Randy 🙂
Memories of deer hunting in western and central New York, too. The Woolrich clothing also brings back the memories when every hunter in our acquaintances wore Woolrich jackets and hats; some even had the pants to match, including myself. But back then we in upstate NY were limited to using only shotguns with a single ball or slug. Many deer were taken via those shotguns which could be very accurate up to about 100 yards. Rifles are now legal for taking deer in Upstate, Central and Western NY
Good Morning, thank you for sharing your memories. I bet you have many more. Thank you for stopping by.
Wow that was so awesome to see! I absolutely love it! Thanks for sharing sister! I hope you’re doing well! ❤
Thanks so much brother 🙂 I’m doing okay! I appreciate you stopping by!! Blessings to you!
Love when you share these old memories ❤ thanks for sharing
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoy them. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a blessed weekend ♥️♥️
That was the good Old days
I agree! Thanks for stopping by.
Hello, Kat! Thx for sharing these pics, really fun to see. I enjoyed reading about it in your description. Made me think of my dad. For most of his life he and some friends/relatives had a hunting cabin about an hour away. I guess these types of outings are somewhat dying out. Loved the old car photo. Never saw a natural refrigeratation like that. Hopefully bears couldn't get into it. We had a natural spring growing up, good fresh spring water, but it has long since been contaminated. God bless you and have a lovely evening.😊🧡🍂
Hi Misha, thanks so much for sharing your memories. There’s not too many camps around like this anymore. Most of the men in these videos were my relatives. My cousin gave me these slides, which I was able to digitalize individually. I love seeing how young they all were. I really appreciate you stopping by, and I hope you have a blessed weekend ♥️🙏🌻🍂🍁
Good content , love the videos
Thank you, I’m glad you liked them.
Pretty neat. Is cabin still standing today?
Thank you, and yes it is.
My dad hunted (and fished and trapped and made shine (“bathtub gin” with his mother) in Maine in the 30’s, 40’s (except when he was in the USN during WWll) and 50’s
Thanks for sharing your memories! My dad was in the USN about the same time as yours. The hunting camp was one of the favorite places my father liked to go to, when he wanted to get away from it all. Thanks for stopping by!
Could you show what that area looks like now? Is that building still standing? Has the land been turned into a house development?
Hi, as far as I know, the building is still standing, but the area has changed quite a bit. A lot of 4 wheelers and dirt bikes go through there all the time, so it’s not as peaceful. No housing development yet. If I’m able to hike in there I will get some video of it sometime before the snow flies. Thanks for asking.
enjoyable
Thank you!
that was great
Thank you! I hope you and your family are doing well.
And its 100 % wool natural fibers . Now you know how sheep stay warm !
Yes indeed! 🙂
CLOSE LOOK FAMILAR ?
I’m heading upta camp in a few weeks. We have lost our patriarch of camp this year. It’s going to be a solemn time for sure. On the bright side… we have our memories and our other camp mates. And I did get a doe tag. This one is for Grumps.
I’m so sorry you lost your patriarch, and I wish you all a good hunt & a great harvest this year. Keep those fond memories alive!
It's a night and day difference between today's realtree "hunters" and the true Woodsmen of yesteryear.
I agree with you completely! Thank you for stopping by.
The good days
Yes! Thank you for stopping by!
Back when boys learned how to be self sufficient. How to live off the land and use a firearm. It was a way for families and friends to bond. Some organizations frown on this today, because a self-sufficient man is truly a free man. We had a cabin and 100 acres everyone in the family would share. Good times.
Thank you! I appreciate your comments. These men fed their families on their harvests. The meat is so much better for you than what you find at the grocery store. Every deer hunting season, my father brought home a deer. It’s too bad some frown upon it.
Mamm is the cabin still in your family
There are new members now. Thank you for stopping by!
Real American's here.........a time when men knew their guns, read their Bibles and attended Church and their handshake was as good as gold............
Thank you!
You bet! Thank you for providing us a trip down memory lane here! Video is a vivid reminder of how far we have fallen in this country. Serious times and dark days are ahead for America.......keep you eyes on Jesus Christ and make peace with God.........the battle between good and evil......darkness and light is intensifying......John 3:16, "For God so loved the world (you and me) that HE GAVE (he made a way for us) his only begotten son that WHOSOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHALL NOT PERISH....BUT WILL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE"! God Bless you my friend....@@KatInTheNorth
@@wayneroberts4144Amen! God Bless you, and thank you!
