Idaho Backcountry Trip
« on: September 13, 2010, 09:58:18 AM »
I just got  back from a week in the backcountry of Idaho and thought I'd share some pictures.  I wish there was one of me with a nice elk rack, but that'll have to wait.  We saw plenty of critters just no elk.

3000' to 6700' pretty much every day.  Still can't walk too well.

Only heard 2 bugles for the week.  Could have been worse, but not much.

Well you know what they say..."anytime away is a good time".  Beautiful high mountain lake.  Thanks for sharing your trip.
