those are some great pictures they reminded me of the weeks memories. i have not connected with a buck yet close twice but other hunters kind of blew it for me. it was actually pretty hard to climb back out of the canyons i was in because the elk were so thick and were screaming at each other non stop all day long.
in fact i was watching a couple of elk fighting with each other through a stand of aspens when i heard a comotion up above me. i turned in time to see a mammoth of an elk bust through some aspens above me running full tilt right past me at 20 yards or so into the frey. he busted up the smaller of the other two elk and went to kicking the other elks behind. while this ruckus was going on the smaller elk rounded up the cows and hightailed it to the next canyon. that is what it is all about talk about exciting.
in all i saw 20 different bulls and i would have to say i would have shot all but two. those 2 were the only ones that would have been under 370.
