The Countdown

[Mr T]

Anybody else counting down?  17 days and counting until I get out there to chase down an elk.   Beginning to look colder and colder in the NE corner 

[trophytaker]

How about 9 more days till you hunt Easton

[stormin85]

He's not hunting easton, he's scared he'll have to work to get an elk, thats why he's waiting to see what i get on the trail camera.

Cant wait for the 300's!!!!

[stormin85]

this will help get the blood pumping and make the countdown seem that much longer lol i retrieved the trail cam and here's a tase of whats in a "300's" unit.

i know the bull isn't huge, but give him, two or three years, about the time i get drawn for the unit and he will be decent then, as long as he's around......

i have heard, but haven't seen, so i can't confirm but there is a 6x7 running around there as well, again only a draw, but it's worth the wait 

[tip]

i'll take any of those!

Do you think it still looks like that there or do you think there is a pretty white blanket all over?

[carpsniperg2]

here is a pic from this morning, there is some, but there definitely could be more, either way i'm pumped with the pictures i got, just praying i can put one on the ground.

The heck with waiting for that one to grow old.  If I ever get a chance at one like that it will be in serious trouble.  Good luck guys.

[stormin85]

HA HA don't get me wrong if i had the bull tag for that unit i would not second guess taking him, would i like some monster bull who thinks he's king of the woods, yeah, will i take a nice looking 4x3? oh yeah, but by the time i get drawn ( fingers crossed if i ever do) for that unit hopefully he is still around and put on some size to that rack.

on top of that if i can get good pics of him and find out if he is a resident bull having some history with him would be absolutely awesome, but thats how hunting goes, he may not be around next year, i'm praying he is, and/or for the following one!!!!!!!

[Ice Cap]

It's going to be one cold azz morning for the late archery elk opener in the 300's lol

[stormin85]

i know i love it, it makes me miss hunting in Michigan, with my grandpa, i haven't been there in years, but its funny how i link really cold weather with good hunting memories haha, or i was that cold i can't forget it haha

[elkbuster]

Glad to see there is some elk in the 300's for late archery.  Thanks for the photos.  It is fun to see elk whether on here or in the field. 

[Mr T]

Anybody have any recent pics of animals in the NE corner?

[stormin85]

Here you go trav, i heard this is running around up there, right in that field where that ONE turkey came in the last night of our hunt, you know the one you scared off?

Just to clarify this is not a pic i took, i found it on the net.

But i wish i did.

[longknife]

Nice pics, and thanks for sharring! Cant wait to see a herd breaking out of the timber, or a single, I wont be picky...

[stormin85]

i think this is the longest four days i've experienced in awhile, but we are down to four days.

[trophytaker]

Travis we have hijacked your forum and it is now about the 300's units. By the way its snowing down here in Buckley I would have to assume there is about 13,000 feet of snow up there by now. I cant wait to shoot that cow that is standing on my blind

[stormin85]

TWO DAYS LEFT BOYS CAN YOU FEEL IT? THE COLD WEATHER IS MAKING THE ANTICIPATION EVEN BETTER!!!!
