I'll try to get some pictures uploaded later but thought I would give a quick recap. 

I think I missed the ideal time by a week.  The elk were pretty quiet and all of the big bulls we saw weren't interested yet and all by themselves.  It didn't help it was 90 degrees everyday so we rarely saw anything between 9am and 6pm.  We did see 40-50 bulls on the trip and three over 350'.  One was a potential shooter but couldn't do it just yet.  I may regret that one..... :dunno:

I don't think you missed much of anything Raffle.  They were just quiet this year.  We had a guy in our camp in the Blue Creek Unit that ate his branched antler tag.  The weather just didn't have them talkin' much.  I did spend a day in the Dayton Unit.  We saw two bulls and couldn't get either one to make a peep... :dunno:  Just a tough year.  Keep at it... :tup:

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Alright here goes......the elk pics are a little shady because they were digiscoped but as you can see Huntinphool is great with a camera.

The first three are of the same elk.  He came out just before dark and nearly a mile away.  He looked great in the setting sun and all mudded up.  We didn't have time to get to him before dark and didn't see him again.  I'm not going to throw out a score but let's just say he was a shooter in my book.  We got him on video and when we watched it later on it was apparent he was a stud.

The last pic is of a nice 6x6 bedded down that went about 360........

I had the one bedded down in my crosshairs at 475 yds standing broadside.  He was small compared to the other one.    :drool:
