For the first time in 10 years we will not be alone in the colockum. With all the cow tags its going to be like back in the days. Good luck to all, Their is 9 in our group with the cow tag, opening day is going to be busy. :)

We are setting camp up 5 days early, we haven't had to do that in 20 years either, ohhhhh  kinda exciting

Yep not all roads are open based on their update on Sunday.  Still multiple spur rds closed. Looks like a lot of mainline rds open.
