Showers are overrated. I just came off of 16 days with only a few baby wipe baths. LOL Wife was tempted to hose me off before entering the house.  :chuckle:

Good luck and shower after you kill something.

Roger that.  Showers destroy your good luck. 

Jeremiah Johnson didn't shower.  He only shaved once, and then they killed his wife and kid.  >:(

I came back from a 9-day sheep hunt and tossed my wife the polypropylene long underwear shirt I had worn all 9 days.  She still brings it up and has yet to forgive me - that was September '98.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

I said I'd take a shower.
I didn't say anything about putting on fresh poly pro's.   :chuckle:

FYI - If you're on the Entiat side of the unit this closure will make it difficult to get access to the southern part of the unit; and vice versa.   Good luck.

Thanks for the tip.
The 5810 and it's culvert replace is actually in the Swakane Unit.  The 5800 road is the GMU line between Chiwawa and Swakane.  This culvert replace is about 100' down the road from the 5810/5800 intersection.

It could have a minor affect on driving access to the NE corner of the Swakane, but not much really.  A little bit more of a drive but the Swakane hunters can get to that corner via the 5801 road.

Thanks again!!  :)

I've drawn this late tag twice. Twice in 4yrs actually! If you're concerned about width, not necessarily gonna find it. Have seen two taken that went 28"..but that's if your lucky. Both mine were 24". But mass, that's a different thing. Those migratory bucks are thick! I like width and mass as much as the next mule deer hunter, but I also love uniqueness. You can find em in this hunt that have it all. Stay patient and hunt hard..they're not standing around every bend in the road.

Nothing exciting to report yet.
Have seen a few legal bucks.  Did pass on a respectable 4x4.  He had pretty good mass down low but his fronts were weak. Like 4" weak.  2 more yers and he'll be a very nice one.
A kid did take a pretty nice 4x4 with eyes late yesterday.  First buck for him so that was pretty cool.
About 4" of snow at the 4500' mark.  Not much more at 5500.  Sun's out, warming up a bit, I think I'll take a nap now.   :chuckle:
