Post by: Kain on August 10, 2010, 09:44:43 AM: Yep going out anyway. Hunt early, late, close to the road or not at all but I gotta get out. Scout for elk and maybe do some coyote hunting if bear hunting is out. I have been an archery hunter all my life and Im use to hunting (or not hunting) in hot weather. Sept temps are usually about the same. :dunno: Good luck to all who choose to brave the temps. Bring a camera.

Very nice offer although I wont have any cell coverage where Im going. Just looked at the forecast and it says it will be in the low 90's down here. LAME!!! Oh well I need the exercise and I have a new camera I want to try out. All the weight in extra water is going to suck though. :bash: :bash:

Post by: johnnypop on August 13, 2010, 07:37:14 PM: Getting gathered up myself. I haven't been this excited for an opener in a long time. Talked to the folks last night, telling them to be ready for the phone call to get the walk in cooler turned on. When I get into cell service, I'm only 45 minutes from the cooler. I'm spoiled, I know. But in this weather meat is going to go bad fast. Best of luck to all the people headed out this weekend!
