Yes I called and its contained and they are still camping on the island just not allowing much activity where the burn was as of this time.. We will be on the island for only two day then spending majority in Henry's and pasagunaut..

It will be hot! My advise, having photographed mulies in the summer for 25 years is to get up and photograph at daylight. You'll have maybe an hour and they will be bedded for the day. Then you can photo at dusk for maybe a half hour to an hour. The middle of the day you can hang with the family and throw back some beers but heat waves and conditions will put the bucks to bed all day and make them unshootable. It's always fun though!
That is the exact plan, will be up well before light to position myself and in the evening.. Going to kayak throughout the day.. Most likely will be watching some bed down and may put a little stock in them to get pics also.. I will be meeting other photographers throughout the week to catch up and go photography some bucks together as well..

Great pic's, incredible deer! So, where do I apply to hunt this place? Do they give out tags?
:yeah: Been saving points in Utah, I would use them for a tag in that area :drool:

As stated, awesome photography, thanks for beautiful view of nature. If you had a tag and saw those bucks, it would be nerve racking to decide on which buck to harvest. Were those Burrowing Owls, looks like it?It was nerve racking just being there with my camera I couldn't possibly imagine if I had a tag.. Being wishing 50yards of these buck was a completely different perspective than I would have ever thought!! It was a great trip and I'll be doing it within the next two years just different time of year!

Not hard to see why that antelope island tag goes for so much money ever year. Henry mtn. are famous for those flash floods you encountered. Two of my brothers nearly had to wait a week to get out a few years back when one hit while they were down there. Amazing how fast some of those dry creeks turn into raging rivers in that part of the state.It came quick and the river bed had nothing on the way in on our way out it was already a foot deep of clay with about 18" of water on top of the clay.. There were a few other groups that were probably stuck for a few days I'm sure! But it was worth it.. Lol

Edit...sounds like the fire is out and no evidence of any animals lost.
I wonder how the auction tag guy is feeling right now.
:yike:
Wow, I spent a couple autumns on Antelope Is. At the marina. Was fishing brine shrimp. Saw the bison roundup, but never found time to hike up and look for deer. I could see a fire there being hard to put out.

They had to put out a fire that was roughly 14k acers the week before we went there!! I was very nervous we wouldn't be able to make it on the island but it was out within 3-4 days.. Thanks pianoman!!
