Mission Muzzy scouting trip

[hunt4]

We found the migration path



We did catch up with one shooter that was chasing a doe . Kinda funny he was only about 100 yards from a hunters rig that had the high power tag


Any body that has or had this tag want to compare notes? We are headed back Wednesday night for the long haul.  My wife gets the privilege of trying to do this tag justice, it will be her first HUNT!

The deer around here migrate vertically--They come down as the snow gets deeper in the higher elevations.  It's already happening.  Each storm pushes them lower.  Yesterday I went looking for coyotes, and the higher I trekked, the fewer deer tracks there were.  Got up to where there were no tracks in the snow at all.  Keep this in mind when you come back to hunt the Mission area.  Good luck.

We actually found a big bear track up Ruby 
Lots of yote tracks up MT Home first spur off to the left on the way from Blewitt

That buck is a smoker for sure, I have one more pic of him but this one keeps you guessing

That buck is definately a shooter, with all the weather we have gotten should be a good hunt for sure, can't wait to see the pics.

Wow how things change fast. Perfect snow is now sheets of ice, crunch cruncsh crunch things just went from difficult to down right screwed up its raining to top it off

That buck is a great buck Sorry to hear about the conditions I am hunting in the mud and rain right now! I wish it would freeze! Maybe by sunday night a cold front is supposed to come threw

[Heredoggydoggy]

Vary your footsteps so the crunching is random, and the animals won't be as suspicious.  Only humans crunch along like the ticking of a clock.  (Clocks used to tick, anyway.)

Oh and I would love to see the other pic of that buck to see his forks

[jrebel]

That is a Masher....for sure.  Would love to see the other picture.
