    The coolest thing I saw on this deer hunt was a ruffed grouse.

    First off, I loved every bit of this story, despite the frustration and (highly relatable) anxiety-inducing number of dudes, dudes, dudes. All that aside, what an incredible bonding experience for you two that you’ll share forever. I’ve said it before, but your daughter is rad. That photo of...

    The Roosevelt elk hunt of my dreams...

    Dang, I missed your recap when you first posted. Your photos make me want to do this hunt, your story, not so much. Amazing adventure, and a hell of a Roosevelt. Glad you survived.

I had a moment on my hunt earlier this month that tripped on that line—climbing some steep, loose rock with a heavy pack, slipped but caught myself—which, like your story...

    Feeding the Rat (AKA GrantK's elk hunting obsession)

    Seriously excellent, journal-quality hunting recap so far. I loved reading it. I hope the man in the white track suit and the man with the scoped Daisy make an appearance during your Colorado hunt, riding elephants and dueling in a distant park...
