In first light, a bull far off.
This year more cows had calves than previous years. A great sign!
Found ourselves in blueberry heaven.

I am glad a bear didn’t get you.
Early on we are spotting moose.
The kid spots a very nice bull. Its across a drainage, working its way up hill. He and our young hunter are off. Its misty raining.
Nearly a mile hike. They went into the trees Brush thrashing, with bull grunts.
In center of pic. After a few hours with no response, they make their way back.
Hot sandwich's await!

loaded for BEAR!I am glad a bear didn’t get you.
Rained the rest of that day, and woke early to more of the same. Soon a bull is spotted with a cow. He's messing with her, but she's dancing around him. Impertech rain gear on and I'm off, slipping and sliding down the muddy trail. I could see them on the opposite hillside at 700 yards, before I Cross the drainage. I worked my way up hill. Hiking through heavy brush, in rain gear, is one of my least favorite chores.
It took awhile, but found him! 300 yards bedded, could just see white palms between the spruce trees. No cow. Brush here is head high. Back tracking a bit, I moved to another higher vantage point. Glassing the trees, cow is looking my direction. The bull is up and looking from behind a spruce. Since they are aware somethings up, I held up my calling scapula. Hes a big boy, I'm trying get brow tines. The cow breaks into a run and the bull spins and follows. Down hill through the trees and into the thick stuff. Gone! Sometimes the scapula will allow us to "dance with the bulls". In hind site that cow kept slapping that boy down, and now a second bull to deal with?

Following morning hiked the trail beyond where we are seeing these bulls. Weather is grey, windy, cold. Hearing motor sounds, found some big rigs coming in. The next couple of days we had wheelers and big rigs show up above camp.
A dozen other hunters in the area.

Looks like the crewcab got a pre-runner front end, don't need that sheet metal, it just gets dented. Assume that he has all 8 cylinders powered up this trip?
