A good spot.

[Gentrys]

Wow. Very nice thank you for sharing the pictures.

Regular highway. good luck

Not that great from that little sample size. Pm me the location so I can put a camera and get a better sample size of actual activity. 

Looks like a great location. Would be fun everytime checking the camera. Almost like Christmas

Thanks for sharing! That’s a beautiful bull!

Nice pics, looks like the wet side.

Did you hunt that for the bull?

Not good, great!!  That wonderful elk smell in that wallow sure brings in the critters.  Thanks

Dandy Spot! Keep it secret

Very cool. Quite the bull.

That first set was just from part of one month--a very good month. Lots of other activity at the spot.

[Shawn Ryan]

16 months in one spot; 3,200+ pics and no people on the camera.

One picture that I posted of that big 7x7 bull was taken at another, nearby location--not the same as all the other pics. Looks like the same bull to me. I think I have a pic of him at another location as well.

[Shawn Ryan]

Same big bull; different location.

[Shawn Ryan]

Nice pics, looks like the wet side.

I did hunt for that bull. I also have pics of him after the hunt, so...

@Shawn Ryan ..how far apart were the spots from one another? Roughly how much area was he covering?

@Shawn Ryan ..how far apart were the spots from one another? Roughly how much area was he covering?

3 camera spots: about 250 yards between 1st and 2nd spot (found the 2nd spot later and moved the camera) and then about 3/4 mile between the 2nd and 3rd spot. All distances measured in straight line on a map. Pretty sure he covers a larger area than what my cameras caught.

Awesome Pics!

It's interesting that they didn't use that trail in the snow, or was the one with the bob cat just after the snow fell?

[Shawn Ryan]

Snow fell in early December.  No elk, deer, or bears after the snow fell.  Just bobcats, coyotes, and squirrels.  Next bear was 4/10 and most of the snow had melted by then. Once the snow melted mid-April, the deer and bears came back. The elk didn't come back until 5/20.

I shoulda killed that 7x7! Got on him twice . Thought it was all over at 90 yards till wind switched.

That bull on opening day was miles away when I first spotted him. 2 days later he was in same canyon I was hunting. He was across the canyon and down from your cam

[Shawn Ryan]

Looks like the same bull.
