My first moose sheds
« on: January 10, 2012, 07:13:16 AM »
I just got back to moscow on monday and spring semester doesn't start until wednesday so I decided to make the trek up Moscow mountain to see If I could spot some moose before the snow got too deep to get up to them. All my friends say I have an unhealthy obsession with moose as I went up to watch them nearly everyday of August and september. I knew exactly where they would be. I parked at the gate of an old skid road that was stationed above a clearcut where I had frequently seen moose before. About halfway down the road I started to see fresh sign all over the place and when I made it to the end of the road where it widens there side by side lay a pair of moose sheds. I had always wanted a pair of moose sheds they weren't the biggest but I was happy to find them.



Same bull or do I have some more work to do?

When you see the third, thin the herd.
Right now I'm somewhere picking up sheds.
