My dad and I had a great scouting trip on sunday. We were checking out an area on the wetside that we have been scoping out on the maps and google earth. I have never hunted the westside before so it was all a guess and I think it was a good guess. We saw 65 head of elk,9 deer, 2 porkipines(sp??) and a rabbit. We were mainly scouting for elk so we are pretty stoked about it. We saw a few spikes and small antlerd bulls(3-4 inch nubs) in velvet. It was alittle trek back in the woods.We traveled about 10 mile up the road then biked about 8 miles back on a closed to motorized vehicle road, but it was well worth it. It's great that I get to spend time with my dad doing something we both like,we had a blast :)

funkster,
So did you and your Dad ever get back to the Herd during Hunting Season?
Any Pictures? Or are you still trying to figure out the Wife's Camera? :chuckle:
