Good luck! I want to see a picture next week of a long haired, horse faced, scimitar horned, cliff troll billy. Enjoy every minute of it and be careful.
You just need to get closer to check whether it’s a badger or a wolverine. If you approach it with your hand out and it bites your hand off it’s a badger. If it bites your head off it’s a wolverine.
Good luck on your hunt! If things get slow remember it can turn around at any moment. I was elk hunting this week and had to take a dump. Just finished my business and heard a rustling in the grass behind me. Turned around and a mountain goat came out of the timber and walked right past me at...
