One day down, coulda shot a Muley if I had a tag. Saw 4 elk yesterday but the fog obscured them I couldn't tell if it was a bull or no. It was barking and cows were calling back, that was pretty cool. Definitely lots of hunter pressure, timber and brush are a lot thicker than I thought. I've found a number of elk carcasses deep in the thick, assume wolves?

 More than likely wolves. Must not be snow on the ground?

Yup wolves got this spike bull. Guess they didn't read the regs bunch of poachers!! Think this is enough to push the elk up and out of a well defined gulch? I went back to where I saw the elk previous day, spent all day there with no sign of them. Ravens led me to the spike. Would be nice to find one of those woofs. How old do you think the kill was? Didn't stink but there wasn't much left to stink.

 Looks pretty recent to me. Maybe a day or two? Kill a wolf while you're there.  :tup:
