Elk are dropping!!!
« on: March 20, 2011, 08:26:42 PM »
On my way to work last Thursday and saw three bulls about 50yds from the road. All three were completely bald. Gonna have to get back in there and backtrack before all the snow melts. Anyone else seeing them this way yet?

We've had at least one bull drop down this way but the rest are still packing.

Stopped by the Oak Creek feed station on the way back to school today. . . I'd say about a third were bald, third had one side, and a third had both.  Also, I spotted a group of five bulls between Morton and Randal, and all five had both sides.
