And if you wouldnt have tolled, i wouldnt have noticed the "fake antlers", but ive only seen elk on TV and tradgang..
And sometimes our dreams they float like anchors in hopeless waters oh way down here
Sometimes it seems that all that matters most are all the things that you can't keep

Unbelievably great hunt, and the story is told as well.

For those of us that wont ever return to the mountains after them, you fellas cannot imagine how much these stories mean.

Wow!  Great stuff Dan!
That is fuel for a full years worth of dreams right there!  No wonder elk hunting is so addicting.

Great pictures Dan. I like seeing pictures like yours that show the little details as well as the big landscapes.

And regarding the lost animal. Nicely put.

A predator with a conscience.

When so many seem pretty casual about a lost animal I was heartened to read your perspective on the experience.

Congratulations! Great pictures. Currently I am 0 for 2 bowhunting for elk. I just returned from trying to help a friend get his elk. It did not help we were competing with gun hunters during an early deer/doe season. I still have a lot to learn about elk hunting I guess. We were required to wear blaze orange. It was his "once in a lifetime ND elk hunt", so he can't ever draw another elk license in ND. But we had a great time,anyway. Always do when I hunt with this guy.

I'd tell you all more, and am now wishing I would have but that takes time!   Thanks to all those who spend their time to thoroughly document their trips for us.

Thanks for all your comments, a month full of hunting (11 days total in the mtns)  would be alot of writing, especiallly since i was the caller the majority of the days so all I could do was hear what was happening.
