Title: Chasing ELK in SW WA
Post by: GregE on December 06, 2015, 11:18:20 PM: Home to clean up and stock supplies...

Ice and snow have melted in the areas I'm hunting........ but
Winds and rain are fully present.

Dress for it.......

We bailed out for a couple days, 40 knot wind gusts, thunderstorms, hail, 4 inches of rain in three days and a tornado in SW WA.

Call me a wimp....
and ELK season ends on the 15th
