Wisconsin DNR estimates elk herds at about 500
I'm in the draw as well. The odds are obviously terrible but it only costs $10 to apply, so why not. -

Thanks for sharing that. I am a total geology geek so incorporating geology side-trips would be an important part of my hunting travel plans. Disappointed to see that the trilobite quarries (bucket list item for me) will likely be closed for the season by the time elk season comes around. Didn't... -

Yep, that was me. You are absolutely right, @Addicting. I thought that I had drawn with six points in the Special draw but after further review, looks like I did draw that single random tag. Wow. Feeling very blessed to be heading to Wyoming with that tag. -

I suspect that my situation is a little different than most and may not be representative of larger trends. I am a "late-onset elk hunter" and had my first elk hunt last fall at the age of 62. Had a blast in NW Colorado in first rifle, now I'm just obsessed with elk and the places that they... -

OnX maps on your video display in Truck
I also use a Samsung Tab A with GPS. Confirming that no cell service is needed. My OnX account syncs my computer, I-phone and tablet flawlessly. Download a bunch of off-line maps onto the tablet and you are golden. No cell service? No problem!- JohnBud

I like the Paraloid as well because it both seals and strengthens the bone. Good stuff if you can get it.- JohnBud

Lithium vs AGM battery for camper
I have two Renogy 100 ah sealed AGM batteries inside my hunting trailer that are maintained by solar. Very happy with these batteries. Lithium just seemed too expensive.- JohnBud

Wyoming point creep. How bad will it be for the NR elk draw this year?
I had the same thoughts and applied for a limited entry tag with 2 points more than it took last year. And yes, I'm in for one of those $1300 special tags. That is very special indeed. -

In reach mini or messenger
Mixed results. The pocket that I used in my pack was on the top of my pack and faced the sky (but not directly up). It seemed to send updates/texts when I was in an area open to the sky. Updates were not reliably happening when I was under a heavy canopy. I also tried putting the Messenger in a...- JohnBud

In reach mini or messenger
I bought a Messenger last fall and used it on a solo elk hunt in Colorado. Very happy with this purchase. The Bluetooth connection to my phone was 100% reliable with the unit in a pocket inside my backpack. My wife really appreciated the frequent "all is good" texts that I would send to her that...- JohnBud
