couple elk pics
« on: May 14, 2007, 10:12:47 AM »
I stumbled onto these today and thought I might get some of you elk nuts something to  :drool: over.  Idabooner and I had to wipe the glasses clean after this guy bugled in our face a couple times.  I needed about 10 more minutes of light to have real clear shots, so we are a bit blurry.  It didn't help I was shaking from excitement. I hope you enjoy!

I heard this fella and another big herd bull down the way talking to the above elk, so I couldn't resist checking them out.

You couldn't ask for a prettier backdrop.  And here was the big herd bull checking me out. Again, sorry for the blur.

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

Why are they still packing?  I thought most of the antlers had dropped by now.  :dunno:  Do elk drop later than deer or something.  Iknow a few people on here have been picking up elk sheds for a while now.

Be careful what you are volunteering for ;).  I tend to go in some serious hellish places.  As my Dad always reminds me, you better take a fork and salt shaker with ya.

There is only a short window in the fall when the the most awesome tree in the world, the Aspen, turns those colors, that was a dead giveaway! Incredible photos thanks for the inspiration!
