Another Great Elk Season. Pics Added.
« on: November 16, 2010, 08:22:45 PM »
Well, my group had a great elk season.  2 Bulls down out of 4 guys with a chance at a third bull. (some dumb chit named huntbear missed one.) :rolleyes:

My buddy got a nice Margaret bull, and my brother knocked down a nice 4x5 Winston bull.  (Pics coming in a few days)  3 mile pack out to the truck on the Margaret bull.  1 1/2 mile pack on the Winston bull.

We had snow, rain, sleet, wind, sunshine, lots of good food in camp, and best of all 10 days with 3 guys I would do anything for, and I know they would do the same.  Sitting around the woodstove at night, bull *censored*ting, trying to dry out.  Giving each other a bad time about whatever.  It was and is, to me what hunting camp is all about.  Good friends and family, great camp, experiencing the great outdoors, and the chance to shoot an elk.

I hope everyone else had as great a time as we did.

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

It was a great hunting season. Can't wait until next year to do it all over again with you and the gang. But next year it will be you and I with the elk on the ground.

I am not sure about the winston but in the margret there is a number you can call to get moterized access to retrieve a downed animal. I was able to drive within 100yrds of my elk. better than the 4 and a half mile pack it would have been.

The nearest road was 3 miles from the downed elk throttle. And a few years ago we called and got permission from weyerhouser security to drive into the winston to recover a elk killed the afternoon before.
