Not in the Colockum, but close, I saw 2 6 points together and one was velvet and one was hard-horned.  They are in the middle of rubbing the velvet off, I guess.

Last Friday rolling up Coleman Ck rd there was youngster 6x6 feeding on the side of the road as we came around a corner.  He was in transition with velvet dangling off a few of his points.  We watched him at 50 yards with the truck running for a good 2-3 minutes.  He could have cared less that we were there.  He finally wandered off downhill towards the creek.  He was in no hurry.

Sounds like he will be a prime candidate for the indians.

Not this Indian and if you're going to post it on here then you're probably going to get some other Indian started that way looking to harvest it. :bdid:

I specifically did not say that because I didn't want to be "that guy".

The OP asked, I said what I saw.

Besides, he was just a little 270-280 ish bull anyways.  He does have the symmetry to turn into something real nice.  His brain needs to develop a bit though.  :chuckle:

Just cross under the powerlines.  About 300 yards beyond the cattle guard, stop and wait.  If you go to the bottom of the hill where the big camp area is on the right, turn around, you went too far.

Still need a map?  :chuckle:

Dont worry guys, Phil from East Wenatchee has already been up there "thinin the heard". I guess the horns are hard enough for him. He usually shoots spikes anyways. Less for you to shoot at and they usually are easier to kill from the truck.  Last week he almost had an airplane land on him in the reserve as they were gutting out a bull on the emergency airstrip.

The wolves are comin. Natives will be a small problem when they get here!

I don't know I think I'm lost already got out of my truck to piss and couldn't find my way back. I like plateau's idea. Then we all can sell it all head into town and drink  some fire water.  lol
