Moose in the blues
« on: November 21, 2019, 07:49:26 AM »
Was a little shell shocked driving down the road and found this guy just grazing away. 
The cow was about 3/4 mile down the road.

I lived in Walla Walla for a few years and twice saw them in town. Once by the country club and the second time on the highway near the the dump. Always cool to be surprised by them.

There was a young bull in the middle of town in Pomeroy a couple years ago.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Been in WW for 15+ years, seems about 10 years ago they’ve become a regular sighting from just outside town up to Kendal skyline towards Godman.

Heard about a couple that hung around the Pan Jab trail head for awhile mid June last year.

I've seen them at Yearling a few times.
The lazy do not roast any game, but the diligent feed on the riches of the hunt.

Ditto on the Panjab trailhead - had one in there during elk season a few years ago, hung around the whole season in that general area....

Theres getting to be a lot in the blues, I saw 2 different bulls this year around godman, and have trail cam pics on a cow in the rainwater, and know guys that were seeing them during elk season.  Moose tracks almost everywhere you look too.  Maybe one of these years we'll see some tags getting handed out  :drool: :drool:

Back around 1993 we were delivering Firewood up around Mill Creek out of Walla Walla and the people had a Cow and calf moose hanging around their place.

I was hoping they’d get established before the wolves did
