Anyone seen any fresh rubs yet?
« on: August 26, 2011, 05:29:03 PM »
I saw my first fresh elk rub of the year. It was yesterday right off of a road. A small 4 inch Alder was rubbed about 7ft up.  :) Out by Yelm. It made me smile. No pics...

Anybody been seeing anything?

I'm going out tuesday to scout around. Should be pretty good. Going to a place a saw a giant bull a few weeks back. Couldn't get a good look but will hopefully see some fresh sign if not any bulls

I saw 6 bulls on Sunday and all of them had beautiful untouched velvet.  Nothing big though :'(
