Title: Wyoming elk and eclipse hunt
Post by: Bob33 on August 26, 2017, 12:42:32 PM: I spent a few days in central Wyoming last week. It was a combination antlerless elk hunt, eclipse watch, antelope scouting, get away from Washington trip. I stayed in a cabin on a ranch southwest of Casper. It's always nice to be in Wyoming. I plan to go back in October for antelope.

Here are a few photos from the trip.

The elk:
