I had archery bull permit last year. Spent the whole season up there and saw one bull day before opener. Got into the cows but just couldn't connect. I learned quite a bit of the area around frost.  This summer I need to get down there and explore more areas. Seemed like we just weren't in with the big bulls and the weather didn't help.
Weekend before opener there was a huge bull with cows down in B meadows and I thought for sure I was going to have the hunt of a lifetime. Not so much.

Anyway, great area, just need to explore it and learn it.  Plan on at least two weekend trips this summer.

320-or 280 that bull is a shooter all day long in there , there's only a had full of bigger bulls in there . if you have the rut tag it's only five days so if your gonna look to shoot a bigger bull than that you best have spent the two weeks before trying to locate him .

A buddy and I also drew archery tags.

Dad drew the archery. We have at least one in camp now.

I ended up with a second deer tag.
