Weddings
Wilson

In the presence of relatives and close friends l.isa Wilson and Mark
Wright were united in marriage at the Camp Sherman Chapel near Sisters

Harvey Wright They arc making their home in l^cbanon while Mark is
finishing his degree in Electronic Engineering at Oregon State
Anyone who has encountered ruff
ed grouse in the mountains of Eastern
Oregon or anywhere in the West, for
that matter has ample grounds for
questioning the intelligence of this sup
posedly wild upland fowl.
Yet, in other portions of our nation,
quite the opposite is true It seems there
is no middle ground with grouse;
depending upon w hich end of the coun
try you hunt them, grouse can he either
incredibly adept or surprisingly stupid
In the eastern United States he is said
to be known as the King of Game Birds, revered for his heart stopping
and utterly sporting flushes from heavy cover and warjv speed flight through
impenetrable woodland tangles Downing one of these birds on the wing
is an event to be toasted by even the most accomplished of twced-clad
shooters, while bagging a limit in this manner calls for full tledge^l cclebra
tion Hence, if one were to speak ill of (he ruffed grouse back East, he
would almost certainly be thrashed, drawn and quartered and, worse, lose
his stoveside seat near the pickle barrel at the local mercantile, removing
any hope of ever being immortalized in a Norman Rockwell type
masterpiece
Here in the West, however, about the only time you can expect a grouse
to burst forth is when you arc not hunting him It usually happens when
you arc seeking larger game, trying to pick your way out of a thick, creek
bottom fir patch when several ruffs explode from all around, sounding
as if they arc defoliating every tree in their path Or you're silently creep
ing along a high mountain ridge, expecting to see a huge buck or bull with
each passing instant, when a large blue grouse suddenly erupts trom beneath
your feet with a commotion not unlike (hat of a runaway B-29 Either in
stance will often leave you yearning for that extra change of clothes back
at camp
But go hunting specifically for grouse, and the situation changes
dramatically You may hunt your (ail off, and when you finally find the
birds they either sit and stare at you or scurry off along the ground Often,
your only chance for a successful hunt is to ground sluice those you see.
which can make for a somewhat ant ¡climactic, though productive, (Hiting
This is not to say that western grouse hunting is a dishkahlc. or even
unsporting, venture These birds arc excellent table tare, especially since
most birds shot arc undoubtedly the young of the year Despite their ap
parent complacency around humans, be it arrogance or ignorance, grouse
have the ability to survive the harsh natural elements common to the minin
tainous regions they inhabit When nun himself becomes too much of a
threat, such as in the eastern states where grouse populations experience
heavy hunting pressure, the birds respond by becoming increasingly wary
and intolerable of man Indeed, biologists believe the reason western gmuse
appear so inept is due only to the fact that they are lightly hunted
Usually the biggest challenge of grouse hunting in our part of the coun
try is finding the birds Though the habitats of both ruf fed and blue grouse
often overlap, the preferences of each are somewhat different Ruffed
grouse arc rarely found far from water, choosing damp, brush tilled
drainages as their favorite domicile Scavmed ruff hunters often look for
running water canyons choked with stands of fir and elderberry Blue
gnnise are about twice the sue of ruffs and prefer higher, big timber ridges
A good method of scouting blue grouse country is to drive high, ndgetop
roads right at dawn Blues like to use these mads to dust themselves just
after descending from their roosts, leaving plenty of sign with the birds
themselves nearby
Grouse season is open now in Eastern Oregon and continues through
October 24 The bag limit is three ruffed and three blue grouse per day
