A Hunting “Shack”??

7/29/2020

Cousins Butch and Tammy own acreage along Apple Creek in McKenzie, ND, 15 miles east of Bismarck. Some of the land is farmed while some has been set aside and is used for hunting.

Last year they had an inspiration and decided to construct a hunting stand / hunting shack. Now when I think of a hunting stand I think of those open air seats that hunters attach to trees about 10 feet off the ground. The deluxe ones have tops with canvas that can be rolled down to avoid bad weather. A hunting shack brings mental visions of unpainted used lumber assembled into an 8 foot by 12 foot building possibly with a tin roof.

​Butch asks us if we would like to visit “The Shack”, promising it’s not typical. Teddy and Jet (fur babies that are also hunting dogs) join us for the trip. As we drive up I realize “not typical” is a huge understatement. The building has windows the open and a deck to allow the hunters sit in comfort while hunting. A solar system and propane provide electricity/lights and heat, including a gas fireplace. The setting is peaceful and it affords opportunities to see stunning sunrises and sunsets. Butch chuckles as he describes the features of the building and tells some hunting stories. We’re happy he gives us the opportunity to see “The Shack”.
