We did several meals this year on our elk hunk. Meatloaf needs to be portioned smaller, lasagna and enchiladas were great. Alligator etouffee was also good just had to use boil in bad rice. Not 100 percent sold on these heavy meals late. Next year may be ham and eggs sandwiches or grilled cheese...
Well I know I'd be pissed. This was our first time out and on the last morning we had a couple bugling. Then all went silent a while later a bulldozer comes down the closed forest service road. We were done anyway but not what I was expecting.
There were times I was glad I was carrying the pistol or my wife may have shot me. I kept pushing up and in the end we had good opportunities. A couple of times we got on top of the elk and they had no way of getting our wind without exposing themselves. Well they were not going to play that...
We are driving back from a central Colorado elk hunt. I wore elk tracker from red wing and broke them in accordingly also I work construction and am on my feet all day. No problems but as said before a lace up 100%.
Well guys it is over. The last two days were really good. Called up 4 elk. One sounded like Corey Jacobson. Another one sounded like it wanted to bugle but almost at a whisper. That was weird. Saw at least 10 more mule deer and even threw rocks at one. Not very smart animals. We did have another...
Congratulations! As a southerner who has made this trip for the first time, I'm jealous of what y'all have up here. We only have a short window of time and it is tough!
Don't know if I'm doing this right or not. We covered 10 miles today. Up and down. 3.5 miles back we found this meadow and it had 3 streams coming in. Following a heavily used game trail in to a marsh and stumbled across another wallow. The game trail lead to an old trail. Looked really good and...
We are doing archery. Two days in the books. Seen big horn sheep ewes. Walked up on 4 mule deer to of them were bucks and one was really nice. Haven't heard any bugles but found wallows and tracks and did have one bark at us. The winds suck!!! Swirling constantly. Found some unbelievable looking...
Made it to Trinidad Colorado trying to catch a few hours of rest. As we pull in to the motel parking lot, I'm looking at what I first thought was a horse in the dumpster, then my delirious state of no sleep awakens me to my senses and it's a black bear with a brown coat. Tried to get a picture...
We are about 2 hours east of Dallas. Left Jacksonville Florida yesterday afternoon and stopped in to see my dad in New Orleans. Avoided any damage from the hurricane and saw a 300 plus mile traffic jam. All of those that fled the storm were headed back yesterday along with the service trucks...
It's been rocking most of the night. Well over 15 inches of rain. Lost power yesterday evening but got it back last night. Trees down everywhere from what I hear. We are better than most right now. Waiting for daylight to survey what it looks like. Hopefully all is well with our oldest daughter...
Utah, hope y'all made it through okay. We are just northeast of you and are getting pounded right now. Well over 15" of rain. Me and the wife are planning on hitting the road tomorrow or Wednesday to head to Colorado for the last week of archery. Good luck to all of our first responders out...
Me and the wife appreciate everything guys. We are headed east of Gunnison and this storm is really putting us in a stressful situation. We have over $2000 in this trip and haven't even hit the road. If all of our family and friends make it through okay we are going to try and get out by lunch...
