Title: Bear, deer, people... no elk
Post by: John B on August 18, 2018, 11:33:13 PM: Finally got myself some trail cams last week. Was hoping to find some elk. My buddy checked them for me while he was in the area setting up his own cams. No elk, but saw a little action

Close to a trail?

Not all that close to a trail, but along a game trail that gets heavy use.

They were doing actual SAR, a guy got lost in the area.
