Beautiful. Looks like you could always fish if you can't get on the elk. Is that an Eberlestock X2?

That is the beauty of the high country...nearly 11k feet...it is a bit cooler up there.

Also this particualar area is known for its mesquito population, so longsleeves beats alot of nasty spray.

Jake,
Beautiful pictures I'm headed up next weekend for a little scouting trip.
Hopefully the snow and mud will be gone, 90deg temps down here it should be leaving fast up high.

I think I would be carrying my fly rod on that scout mission rather than my bow. Looks like some really nice trout fishing from the pics.

Headed to Idaho for a week of back country trout fishing next month and cannot wait!

Oh ya! The rod came along on this trip as well...some fine fishing in that neck of the woods. Good luck on your trip.

Thanks all for the comments!

My elk spot has no great bodies of water, but almost as pretty
