No dogs found in the Colockum
« on: January 01, 2011, 12:11:52 PM »
A group of us spanned out across the Cooke Canyon/Colockum Rd area yesterday (down fairly low) and heard some dogs yipping but no tracks, scat, etc.  No deer or elk either (but I assume they're over in the 329 Quilomene heading toward the peace & quiet of the reserve by the river  :rolleyes:).

Beautiful cold day but disappointed we couldn't call in anything.

Suprised you folks came up empty. Any day in the Colockum is a good day!
I felt like a one legged cat trying to bury a terd on a frozen pond!

Ive never had crap for luck with dogs in the clockum cooke area!

Cats, yes (at least Ive seen em and shot at a few), but dogs...never! I always here em during elk season...they even come by shortly after I call and laugh at me in one gully... :chuckle: :bash:

Better luck next time!

Speaking of cats, came across a cool cat trail.  Fairly steep embankment with paw marks coming down.  When it reached the level ground of the trail (which had 12"-15" of snow on it), you could clearly see the 4"-5" width track where the tail dragged.

Oh, yeah, speaking of snow....bring snowshoes!  We weren't so smart.

I always see dogs in the colockum during deer and elk season. I fugured it would be littered with them right now. Shot at a nice cougar last year too.
