I actually was watching that same Buck that I got last year for 3 years in a row... the first year he crossed the road right at dark and I had 2 cars behind me on my way out of the farm and I have 15 mins left to hunt... A guy screams and honks his horn... You son of a B*t** it's to late to shoot... I was so mad!! The next year he was chasing 6 does and a spike around a flat clear cut 1/8 of a mile away from were I seen him the previous year and couldnt get a good shot... Chased him for 8 hours that day!! So the next year (last year) I'm driving in the gate and 10 miles in at the 10 mile sign I see eyes cross the road into a large clearcut and I park right on the side of the road and wait until daylight... BUCK FEVER from hell though... lol Anyways day light comes around and I dont see him... I start walking in to the clearcut to a large stump to climb up on and sit and he jumps up and snorts and looks at me like he was going to attack... I aim and shoot... right in the neck and he drops... 1 shot .....1 kill .... oh yeah...

Well I'm going to Winston Creek this year for ELK... We have cow tags... Cant wait for a break away from work... Maybe we'll see you guys up there... Keep you all posted with pics and info!!

Vail is open year around for non-motorized access.  You could get a liitle ways back if you used a bike. Ive done it before and you would be amazed at how little people you end up seeing. (when the gates are closed) Just stay out of active logging areas, they're the only areas that they dont allow public access. :P
