Have you been to ID ? :chuckle: there is wall tents galore! There are people in camp that dont hunt friends, family members and children.

There were guys last weekend setting up camps for Oct 10 opener

No way in the world would I miss elk camp! Family and friends, good times! Killing an elk is just a bonus...
I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

It doesn't matter what you think...

I killed Mr. Majestic 200 yards from the road last year. No need to kill myself. Hunt where the elk are..

I have been hunting for about 45 years(yup I'm old), Hunting camp is part of the reason I go. Just going out to hunt solo is OK if you don't get along with or like people. Then you only have to listen to you. Most people like company around.  Not saying you need to hold hand while out and about singing Koombaya,, but a camp with family and friends is right for me. Nowdays I go to deercamp and elkcamp and take armed hikes :chuckle:

Its the evolution of the hunter as he or she grows older...Im getting to the point that its all about the whole experience with some hunts, I still do lots of solo hunts.

Elk camp holds some of the best memories of my life. Before I had a family and responsibilities, I lived  for that one week a year. Now Its my turn to bestow those memories to my kids. And they love it   :tup:
