Title: Nooksack Elk Trail Cam
Post by: Wea300mag on July 14, 2010, 07:40:52 PM: I've been letting my trailcams (I'm addicted so I have 2 now) soak up in the Nooksack area looking for some elk for 50CalJim, Bearhunter, shanevg, and BTKR's brother. My first soak turned up a herd of spikes for shanevg.

I consider them average, there are some bigger ones in there, I just haven't had them cross in front of my camera. During the rut the big boys come out of hibernation and you can see them working cows in Hurn field (right off HWY20) and in the fields off of Challenger Rd.

:chuckle:I'm going to stop a 2 for a while, they keep me pretty busy finding new spots and checking them on a weekly basis. I like to put them in places where I can get a good hike in getting to them. This particular camera is only about 100 yds off an open logging road though.
