Yah Tom, looks like they are going to be logging your area hard. Lots of new cuts already and more marked for cutting.

Well, this is weird. The elk in this area do not like wet cob! I put half a bag there a couple weeks ago. There had been very little elk activity at that time. Today, the ground was tore up with elk tracks, all the way in to the camera. I thought I was gonna have a ton of pictures. When I got there, all five little piles of cob looked like they hadn't been touched. Some of it was even growing. Fresh elk tracks all over. Sure enough, did get some pictures, on July 9th. A small bull and brand new calf and a cow or two. Weird that they didn't touch the cob. I was going to pull the camera, but with all that cob there still I hated to do that, so I left it, and even added another. I'll go back in a couple weeks and check it. But as of August 1st I won't be able to go in there anymore since I'm not going to buy a Weyerhaeuser pass.
