went for a drive/short hike yesterday
« on: May 10, 2010, 09:12:43 AM »
so yesterday i decided at about noon that i needed to get out and go to the hills. headed out to the skate creek road since i know the area, headed up one road and got blocked by the snow. so i decided to hike down into a creek bottom but couldnt get all the way down due to snow.


so i hiked back to the truck and decided to drive some lower roads to see what i could see. and i found this laying along side the road and just down the hill.

after finding that i decided to head into packwood so i could see some live elk. well sure enough there they were laying all over peoples yards.  :chuckle: after enjoying packwood i decided to head down to randle to check out the 25 rd since id never been up it and i want to learn some more areas. got down there went up the rd saw a car completely flipped over into a farmers field, then got up into the hills. man that area is great! i didnt even get that far up the road (about 10 miles) but it is some gorgeous area.


on the way up the 25 rd i saw 4 deer crossing the road. they stopped and let me get some pictures once they got into the bushes.



on the way back down i stopped to take a picture of the cispus river.


on the way out through the valley i saw these 3 elk far out in a field.


all in all i saw 110+ elk from packwood to eatonville and 6 deer. it was a great day!!!

great day, im taking my son to packwood this weekend, since we cant seem to find elk during hunting season. It will be nice for him to see actual wilderness elk.
Happy Hunting and Fishing
