Title: Talking in the Margaret
Post by: Ghost Hunter on August 31, 2012, 10:34:54 PM

Slept under the stars last night.  Bugles put me to sleep.  Good luck to the archery hunters moving into my area :tup: :chuckle:  Climbed 3000' and hiked a lot of elk trails today.  Huckleberries, salmon berries, and strawberries for nourishment.   I'll stop scouting and wait to November.

We were up Sunday Scouting deep in the Margaret unit, found a nice 6x6 with 30 cows, what a stud!  with the cold temps the elk and deer were out feeding until late in the morning.  Good luck to the archery hunters!

I only have to wait till October 6. Here's to hoping the stick and string boys and the 4 rifle rut guys leave some nice ones standing. :brew:

I'll be poking around a bit more the next few weekends and then after they get done to see how things settled out.
