Title: Active duty ML hunt op'ty.
Post by: washelkhunter on August 20, 2014, 10:14:44 PM: My hunting partner and I are looking to host an "active duty" service man to ML elk camp. We are going to hunt GMU 352 from 10-4/11. We provide a 14X16 wood stove heated, fully carpeted and outfitted camp. You will need to provide your weapon, sleeping bag and what ever is your beverage of choice. Opportunity ends 9-8 at midnight. Winner announced 9-9 here.

Third year in a row I'm missing out on deer and elk seasons :'(

At least I did get back to go salmon fishing for a day this summer for the first time since 2011 :)

Post by: SERE VG on August 25, 2014, 03:27:18 PM: Bravo! Thanks for offering this. I'd put in, but I've preparing all summer for my first archery hunt. All in on one spot that had plenty of elk last year and not a single bear. This year I've got 1 elk and a dozen bears, lol. So... about that bear hunt.

Retiring next year after 21 years!

Cheers

Vince
