Do you have a hole in the elk fence at the feed lot? :chuckle: Looks like a good year for you so far, and it has only begun.

Yea remember that guy last year that was married and had a kid and instead of looking for a job he would rather be out shed hunting.  :chuckle:

Lotta bone man! Do work son. Smossy lots of folks are waiting for the feeding stations to open. They keep them closed so the snow can melt and the elk can migrate back to the hills. Some folks probably wish they could sneek in early and id imagine some do.  :bdid:

Certain areas are closed to access to protect animals on the winter range

I was out  today, and all of our elk are still holding onto theirs. And I was thinking if they were dropping in Wa yet.
Our deer on the other hand all look the same now.
