Found a few survivors from this year. Can't wait to see how they winter and see what the grow into this coming year. They are some good ones!

I am hoping to get more pictures of this group in the weeks to come. There are 10-12, these were the only ones that gave me any chance at pictures. There are 4 more that will knock you socks off!

Great pics and great bulls!

I just got depressed again though after seeing those pics. I was hunting our late season here Saturday, snuck to around 75 yards of 4 big boys, 330 on up to about 380 class, when the darn wind switched.  :banghead:

If you could herd that top bull up to the east face of the Bighorns, I would appreciate it.

AW this country is a lot steeper than what the pics show, but this is wintering ground and not where they are in Sept.

Scott if you ship me some wolves make sure they are already tanned and ready for the wall!  :saywhat:

Kicked my but for sure Elk.  Going from 30' above sea level to STEEP 10,500+ worked me over pretty good. Lol

Elksong, I think it's simply amazing that these animals can make it from year to year.
The environment they live in and what they go through during the rut shows how tough these animals are. Great photos, thanks. Teaschner is a real comedian isn't he?

Jasonnnnnnn
Any other pic's of that bedded one. Left antler looks neat.
You should go after a Wolf to go with your Tatonka.
Had 100 head out by work Monday, did not see any branched antlered ones...probably moved south towards c-dale.
Merry Christmas my friend

You should stop right there.  You are already going to be blamed for many lost hours of sleep......due to dreams of bull elks dancing in someone's head!!!!!

Thanks for compliments guys! Butts2 - I have been trying to get a good picture of that dang bull for WEEKS! He stays in the thick stuff and I just get glimpses of him. This is the best picture I have of him to date. Hoping he will slip up and come out in the daylight one day....
