Cool pics guys.

Elk is near (if not at the top) the top of my wish list. I have been on several elk hunts and have yet to get a shot at one.

Man, I really want to see one of my arrows disappear into the bread basket on an elk!

(http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f43/wachatz/theherd.jpg) old boy in the middle was a smart old beast of an elk!

  (http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f43/wachatz/elk%20scouting%202012/DSC00646.jpg) Boatload of cows & calfs on the snowfield in center of photo!

Don't have any dead elk pictures I can show on this sight, but someday soon I'll cross paths with a stupid one and get a good shot off, missed two with the stick so far in two seasons and had to pass several shots so I'm due!

Look at the heart lung area there are blades of grass showing you where to shoot this bull. I also just saw the guy in blue jeans. Funny how we sometimes only see what is right in front of use.

Thanks for sharing the number one critter on my bucket list.

Two more weeks and I will be off to Idaho, my third attempt at taking a bull.  I have very high hopes on this trip.  Well off to hit the community stair stepper, 500 steps up to the top of our ski jump!

It's getting close now! My brother and I are doing a pack-in DIY.  Been going over my gear for the ump-teenth time,  headed out in about 2.5 weeks.  Really getting stoked.
