Thanks bltck61483, I feel better about my young Redtick female. I was afraid she had quit treeing.
They burn where I hunt every year starting March. My best dogs have worked a track across ashes from a 4 day old burn (no rain) but no fun to listen to. Normally they burn progresively across the place and if it doesnt rain they might get it all done in a week. So I got to where had not been burned yet found a good oak flat and turned out. After about 45 minuites the dogs came back, even my old walker. I decided to ride on and turn out again. LOL The next two mile were still moldering. I had turned out in a 5 acre patch that had a cemetary in it that they did not burn. I was glad to find that old walker would come back because before that I didn't think he knew what come back was.
One time the dogs treed right where the fire had burned itself out. The coon was there and the boy with me wanted to climb and shake him. He shook and shook. The coon decided to walkdown. The boy didn't have much choice but let the coon crawl down him so he took his hat when the coon got to him and slapped him about twenty feet. The coon happened to land in the burned area and danged if he didn't get away.
