PA's Mecca of Hunters: Cabelas

We traveled to Hawk Mountain Wildlife Preserve and were sorely disappointed because we couldn't hike the trails! It was the first day of hunting season, so for safety reasons, the trails were closed.


So plan B... we went to Cabelas! Cabelas in Hamburg, PA is known far and wide for its 250,000 square feet of taxidermied animals, fish tanks, hunting, fishing and camping supplies and anything outdoorsy.


This statue graces the front of the Cabelas building and is to represent the frontiersman (such as Davey Crocket and Daniel Boone) and the native American working together to survive the wild. Flat Stanley has taken the helm!
