Compared to gas money and miles on my truck I am not finding squat.  i took my daughter out this Friday.  She hasn't found one yet.  Her little sisters both have.  I had a sure thing going and thanks to a fellow member an awesome spot to take her.  Moose and whitetails were on the doquet.  We were ONE DAY too late.  4 wheelers had gridded the area tearing it to shreds.  MAN THAT PISSES ME OFF.  By the time I was done with the morning, I was so mad at people on 4 wheelers, there wasn't a good one of ya out there. LOL  Goes to show how a few bad apples ruin it for everyone.  By the time the day was done I WANTED THE WOODS CLOSED to all 4 wheelers.  They tore the hell out of it. LAZY *censored*S.  Anyway, If I'd have taken her two days earlier I would have had a nice set of moose bones to tease Rob with, and a nice whitetail rack.  They took the skull off of a winterkill, jawbones were there but no skull.  It was a dandy so can't blame them for that.  Anyhow what I did do fo the day was my daughter got to see her first moose, a young bull.  I got him to grunt at us, that was fun.  She also had a nice day hiking and got to see some western Bluebirds which she had never seen before. :bash:

Nice pics Bone, sucks about the 4 wheelers. I'm with you, it wouldn't hurt my feelings if they locked the gates and banned them.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

I went for a hike near Potlach, Idaho yesterday.  I walked in two miles and lone behold there were three quads parked at the beginning of an old skid road.  >:( I decided to walk some of the clear cuts, and noticed four wheeler tracks all over.  I hate lazy people.  :bash:

They were behind locked gates (ROAD CLOSED)...they went around them.  Thats what really pissed me off.  Then they tore the hell out of the Laurel and left big ruts digging in the mud so that they could climb up and down the hill.

I just don't understand these lazy *censored*s!! I understand it's all for one and one for all on public land but when you start taking motorized vehicles on closed areas then its uncalled for. Would be nice to catch them and turn the asses in. I ran into the same thing up the Teanaway where the surrounding land owners thought they had the right to take their four wheelers on closed property. :twocents:

As state to duck before, just before you give up.  Drove 5 hours then started hiking.  Three inches of fresh snow.  Gotta love it.  I started looking for tines and then let the sun do its work.  I found 5 muley bucks up in about 4 feet of snow.  Can't wait for it to melt.  After checking out several of my most productive a favorite spots without finding a DAMN thing, I was about to give up.  I was going to spike out and spend a couple nights, but it just wasn't worth missing my family over.  I started heading home when I figured HECK I will check out that small spot for 30 minutes.  Its been pretty productive in years past.  I immdediately found a small two muley shed.  I kept climbing.  I skipped this spot last year and am now KICKING MYSELF.  I looked up and my heart quickened.  Its taking more and more these days to get me fired up......
