Got One! First Elk Ever.. First Big Game Ever.

[Jchiggins2012]

8 Days in the North Slope Uinta Mountains. Trudging through 18 inches of heavy snow.. What a fun trip. Took my first big game and now im hooked. Got to break in the new howa 1500 and she did her job as I did mine.

Then I had to buy a freezer and getting ready to process is all tonight. MMM elk burgers....

Congratulations on your bull. Doesn’t quite look like 18” of snow though.

Ha probably not right there. In the Meadows there was a pretty steady 18. Then another 6-10 inches by Thursday.

I'm from Michigan. And lived in the UP. Great up snowmobiling. I can say that hunting in that much kicked the shit out of me. I need to either get in better shape. Or get some snowshoes haha
