Congrats what a cow.  If you weren't having any lucky was going to have to try to go in off of Campbell Rd, I grew up out there and it's beautiful but tough country

Congrats  :tup: way to go. Its tons of fun hunting up there . Did you camp at that first gate ? and was there a lot of deer hunters ?

I did camp by the gate actually. Thanks for your info as well. So many helpful guys on this site. There were not many deer hunters. I bet we saw 3-4 deer hunters close to the weekends. It felt like we had the whole mountain to ourselves. It is hard now that the gate is closed but it is worth it if you put in the effort.

We did not see many deer though.... :dunno:

I am trying to put a video together of the hunt which is why the pics are taking so long. Hopefully soon.

Regards,

Brianb231

I was fortunate to be a part of this hunt with BrianB123, and am very thankful to him for including me! 

This was the hardest hunt I have been on yet, and it honestly humbled me a little bit.  I used to think I could go anywhere, anytime, no problem.  Well, one day we really over did it and put in somewhere between 18- 20 miles (5 on mountain bikes) and we paid for it.  It took the whole trip to recover, but we never quit looking.  In fact, after Brian got his cow, we still pushed on every day to video some moose and look for deer and bear!  Thanks goes to my hunting partner for being the "pusher" on this trip!  And to my 69 year old uncle, who never missed a hunt on this trip either!  He is an inspiration!  This is one trip I will never forget!

I can tell you, that I have been putting in for moose for 13 years, mostly just because it was something else to hope for.  Now that I have seen bulls and cows come to the call, the size and intensity of the bulls.... I CAN'T wait to get drawn!!!!!

As a side note,  I was on this hunt and I am STILL waiting for more pics   :bash:    :chuckle: :chuckle:
Thanks Brian!
