Who's Bull is this????

[duckslayer]

Well between our game department and you giving the GPS coordinates to your kills away, you must not want to ever draw THAT tag again!

I like that place!!

[duckslayer]

Ya Skinner me too! Thats why I hate seeing it posted online!!!!!!!!!!

[Skinner]

Ya but you have to know exactly where it is to get there.  It's kinda hard to get to and not many would want to walk there.  I know I wouldn't unless I had to.  I rode horseback, but I know what your saying.  I was swarn to internet secrecy but guys were nice enough to give me hints towards my 2008 tag.  If it wasn't for them I wouldn't have scored on a dandy bull!

Skinner, Pretty easy hike to me, super flat for the last half. All I am saying is if a guy was smart he can learn alot from reading and putting two and two together from these posts. All we need is more people running around up there. This year it was a ZOOOOOO during the first part of archery season. But the last half was the best, all the weekend warriors had packed up and went home and the weather turned alittle cooler. Congrats on your bull, I also took a dandy bull up there in last minutes of the season.

THanks I came in from opposite where you came in I believe so it would be a little bit longer hike for me.  Congrats on the bull mine was day 6 and only saw one person.  I heard about the ZOO around opening week.  Too bad but glad ya wacked one!

Like Skinner said you have to know exactly where its at to get to it, and for most its a LONG hike in, and you almost have to have horses to pack a bull out of there, or quite a few friends.  All I know is I would never hunt that basin if I had to carry my camp on my back a long with an elk and make multiple trips...  Just no way it would happen.

Very few people know about it and nobody is giving out directions...  I'm kind of curious to know where you think it is, because I highly doubt you packed your bull out of that same area while on foot...  Maybe you're just a BAMF...

Hey MichaelJ, If you know as much as you think you know about the area, then myself hunting partner packed my 01 bull out from 800' below the lake, and last years is A LOT further in than that. And NO you can't get your horses to my new honey hole ( which will remain a secret ). There is a reason they call it a "labor of love". The hole way out you have to keep telling yourself you have all year to look at the pictures and remember. I am not into pissing matches thats why I only have 5 posts. I choose to reply to this thread because it hit to close to home/fav. spots. Just as proof I will get a pic up in the next few days ( not a computer geek ) if I can get this thing to work.

Thats definitely a tough packout and you must've come out the other way from what I'm reading... and no I don't know the area very well at all.  I drew that tag in '07 and thats the only time I've hunted that area.  A good friend who lives near there took me there and showed me the area.

I totally understand wanting to protect your honey hole and am not wanting a pissing match.  I think though that you're being a little too paranoid about the area...  It'd take a LOT of work to find out where that area is from that picture...

Nice duck slayer!  Cant wait to see pics!  That would be a hell of a hump over some of those ridges.  My buddy has got some awesome mt. horses from winthrop that we took in there and it was all they could do to make it "off trail" go my bull.  It's some crazy country and hopefully I can go back with a family member or gf if they draw this year.  Lots of people know of the area but its only a few who wish to torture themselves for the reward!

Bone, no need to look under the front bumper of your truck.  Nothing is there; I guarantee it.   

By the way, good luck hunting, uh I mean finding some deer and elk again this year.   

I know, I have a GPS mounted on the rear bumper of your truck, and one on the belly of your horse.

I like that place!!

Yeah I like that place too!    You all have seen mine so I won't bore you again but it's a cool hunt.
