Looks like you had a great hunt.  Terrain looks similar to where I took my son caribou hunting 2 years ago.  Congrats on a couple of great bulls.   :tup:

It was some cool country for sure. My one complaint with the area was there was nothing to burn. We were camped at tree line and finding even a handful of twigs took a lot of looking around. The weather wasn't too cold so we didn't really need a fire, which a good thing because with my fire making skills I needed a little more wood. There was a couple nice creeks within a few hundred yards of camp, we were blocked from the wind and had a great view of the valley right from our tent, and caribou were funneled right into us because of terrain,  so all in all it was a great spot.

The blurred out faces I did because I don't want my sons face on the internet, my buddy probably doesn't want his face either and I figured since I blurred theirs I may as well do mine too  :chuckle: a bunch of you guys have seen my mug anyway so you aren't missing much!
