Very Cool! Great pictures. I would have liked to have hunted back in those days!
Now I really feel old..... :( 1982 pictures would have seen our elk camp look very similar. And I would have been young !! :yike: Army wool pants, flannel shirts, no blaze orange, etc. All those rigs are now what they all say is " vintage "

How in hell did you guys get those elk? I don't see any swarovskis, sitka gear, $350 kennetrex boots, jacked up 4x4 diesel pickups, huskemaw long range scopes. Brings back great memories. I for one, would like to go back to those days of limited technology. Hell, I'd like to go all the way back to the 1800's.My first 4 bulls (in a 4 yr. period starting in '62) were taken using a 3/4" tube Weaver model 330 scope side mounted on my .348 Win. Still have both. Yup, we had to sneak up on 'em. Great pics bringing back many great memories.
Thanks
Mike

Snow was common
Any bull was fair game
2 week long November modern firearm seasons were the law
Men took their boys out of school for the week (if grades were good enough)
Elk hung in camps
I'd sure like to turn back the clock.

NOT alone there!
This one is of our father during the now defunct late hunt that was in the same geographical area as Malaga special permits that used to be open to all tag holders. I believe this is mid 1970's late November
We lost him in 1990 and have missed him ever since
