Nice, looks like a few places I lived in over the winters in different parts of the country. Goes to show you the attraction that these outstanding features have on animals of all kinds.Figures you would be discreet and not anyone to see you around your favorite cat house. Smart man............ LOL

There was a fire sale at Salt Wells recently. All that's left is the chimney. Another Nevada historic landmark gone. Cold Springs burnt, too, in the past year, but it wasn't a cat house.

Archer I catch a few at old structures like that, problem is people like to poke around those places to.
You'll notice that cat was toe caught which I kind of figured would happen. I set the trap back under the house to get it out of the drip line for freezedown purposes and figuring to avoid dogs if any yayhoos showed up.
I leaned that piece of plywood up as kind of a roof to keep the snow off. When I set that trap there was a foot of snow or more. I saw the track come down out of the hills clear out to the shack when I first went to look, took 3 weeks to come back.
I took a drag hooked trap over then thought better of it . I cabled it to a board on the floor. Good thing or I'd of had to hook a chain up to the truck and pull the building over to get the cat out from under it. lol!!
You could shoot an arrow into California from that pic. just catching the overflow.

Joel,
Good job at the cat house. I would have put the trap on a drag. And still would have been out there digging the cat out.
Bill,
Sorry to hear Salt Wells burned down. I appreciate your keeping up to date on it.
Speaking of Salt Wells, there used to be a helipad out back. Navy and Marine fliers would drop in for a quickie.
The Navy made it off limits when one helo wouldn't start and it was stuck there for awhile.
Bad publicity for the Navy. But good for the brothel.

They burned the old one down but they built a new one for you just down the road.
Quite a few beaver around there. In the river.

Mercer,
I went to Ely instead. Four hour drive versus eight. Plus I try to sneak out and ice fish a little at Comins Lake.
If I had to do over, would have gone to Fallon. Sounds like I missed out on some good chow.
Lets try to get together sometime.
Want to ask you what you think of the 22 Hornet caliber for a night gun.
