Love these pics guys. Anxious for September!
In very middle is a small snow field with dots on it, there are in excess of 50 elk on the snow and ground around it, this was preseason!

who wants to take me to get my elk hunting pic? Anybody? :wavey:
Well, here are two shots that describe the emotions of elk hunting:
Usually, I look this when elk hunting and this gets me fired up for more this fall

Unless I call a bull in to about 20 yards to my son and there is no shot available, then we look like this for awhile.

Did some bugling at night from that rock to help locate some pressured bulls. We killed ours two days after this photo on the far left ridge. Dying to get back.

Great photos so far, keep em' comin! Thanks for sharing.
Awesome Pics everyone!!! :thumbsup:
Yeah, this thread is making me jones for the mountains, I can see them from my house, but other than driving up to the casinos in Black Hawk once(I did see an elk though), I haven't been to the mountains since elk season ended. Planned on going up hunting rabbits, but weather never cooperated on my days off or the wife wasn't feeling good. It's 4 days into turkey season and it's been snowing, over a foot at my house so I can't even get up to hunt mountain turkeys, maybe this weekend I'll get up there.
:thumbsup:
Arhhhh.... Elk hunting. With luck ill be back in CO next year for a hunt of a life time...again.
I will post some pics up later.
Love these threads.

I love your pic's Randy! I really really want to make it out west to hunt elk and mule deer.
As already said "I could look at these pics all day" Maybe some day....... :pray:
Randy,
What a coincidence, I have all day to enjoy the scenery. To be honest, these photos are motivation to go for a run. I'll be back for more. Thanks to everyone.

Keep the photos coming, they make me feel that I am there hunting with you.
I took this elk within 30 minutes of leaving the truck......about 1 km into a valley....called in to 13 yards by my friend...was wearing a ghillie suit ...that was as lucky as you get

TrublTrubl, nice bull! I have often been lucky, but didn't have the skill you had to capitalize on the luck!
Here are a few for you.

Love your images elksong! I am going to colorado in september on my first elk hunt. Gets me really excited!
If I could figure out how to bottle up the sights sounds and smells of elk country and sell it I would be a rich man. Elk hunters aren't just out for the kill and it shows in these pics. Very few kill pics and a lot of beautiful country.
Elksong, I wish I had your skills behind a camera. I love your pics, especially the mulie pics.
NICE PICS ELksong!

Gee... A cool old thread!
Love your pics Elksong.
I love the picture of the guy sitting on the log smoking the pipe! It is amazing how I spend twenty some days a year hunting elk and never take the time to take some good pics. Need to slow down a bit I think sometimes I'm missing the point:)
Im going to give this photobucket a try.

We shined a light and low and behold their was a big cinnamon bear standing on my tent where my cot was located.
