SOLDATNA BOOKKEEPING
So many .people contributed
time, labor and money that a
complete list, would include al
most everyone in Kenai and
many.more from outside Ke
nai, so we would like to add
that if your name isn’t on this
list your efforts were appre
ciated. It is the vyholehe tide 1
support such as the Kenai
Days Committee re eived that
made the celebration a success.
Kenai guide Andy Anderson displays the three full curl sheep
heads taken by Bob Schmidt, Rev. Raul VVeimer of Soldotna, and
himself. That's Bob Schmidt’s trophy Andy's holding. This record
class head has a curl and scored approximately 170 points
which make it eligible for the Boone & Crockett record book.
Three Sheep Hunters
Collect Trophy Heads
Horns in the trophy class were
brought back by Bob Schmidt,
who lives off Kalifonsky Beach
Road near Soldatna, following a
hunt in which he and his com
panions all got their Dahl sheep
on opening day in the Tustemena
Lake area.
The full curl and a quarter
horns measured approximately
170 points by Boone and Crockett
standards. The ram was a big one
and judging from rings on his
hoi ns was nine years old.
Other local hunters have been
equally successful in securing
sheep, goat and moose. The sea
sons overlapping as they do this
year have put hunters in the field
en masse.
Schmidt and the Rev. Paul
W eimer, Baptist minister from
Soldatna, were flown into the
Tustemena Lake area by Harold
R. “Andy” Anderson, a registered
guide and charter pilot, three
days before season opened on
Aug. 10. They were landed low
on the glacier flats and had a
long hard day’s walk to the top
of the mountains where they set
up camp.
They had their rams spotted
before season opened. Weimer’s
ram and the one shot by Ander
son both had full curls. All three
sheep were taken at about 4000
ft. elevation and had to be packed
down to the landing spot.
Schmidt, incidentally, also shot
his moose on opening day, Aug.
20, dressing it out and getting
home in time to clean up and go
to church services Sunday morn
ing.
Bud Dye of Oil Field Service,
Ken Allen of Allen Oil Tools and
Bill Whitney, Standard Oil Co.
employee, all of Soldatna, went
hunting in the Russian Lake
area. They walked in about five
miles and made base camp on
top of Cooper Mountain, ail hop
ing to get sheep. They came back
with goats shot on opening day
in the Russian Trail vicinity. Dye
also was successful this past
spring in getting a polar bear.
“Andy” Anderson of Ander
son’s Flying Service reported
Wednesday that since moose sea
son opened Sunday five of his
charter customers have shot and
flown out their moose from across
Cook inlet from Kenai. They were
George Dethleffen, Anchorage;
Leonard Covington of California;
li. J. Covington, Reno, A’cv.; and
Major Priebe and J. D. Conner,
both of Fort Richardson.
