I've hunted this area for close to 20 years and have never seen every thing so green and so much water. It took me 6 days just to see my first elk, i called some in before that but couldn't see them.                                                                                                                                                                                          Fresh back straps for supper.

Hey.. I spent a few days in the flat tops around the same time you were there. Sounds like we hit the same rain storm. We couldn't find the elk after the smoke-polers had their way. beautiful spot though. We were off Owl Lake Road where were you?

[Can Hahaka]

Awesome ain't enuf to describe your post - tell us a story!

Great pic's Bone. I have spent a lot of time in the same area hunting and reconize a bunch of spots in your pic's.

The one thing I have never seen in all my time in that area is a bear.

Back from a little trout fishing. There was bear sign everywhere Rich, I've only seen 4 in all the time I've hunted there, one guy in camp got a small chocolate colored bear,he had the nicest fur I ever seen.Going to make a beauty of a rug. Steve, the camp ground was full when we got there and elk were hard to find, I saw 2 elk the first 8 days and finally found a bunch the last day, Everyone got close at one time or another but and 3 of the 4 of us had shots. and yes that tent is nice (12x16)need a bigger stove so we don't have to get up to toss more wood in to dry clothes in the middle of the night.

Please Lord send some elk this way.                                                                                                                                                                                                 Got to go to a football game, finish this later.

That cross is on a hill east of the N.F. camp ground,you can climb up to it on a trail in 45 min. if you don't stop. On the cross it says," Thank you Lord you made it right." Well worth the climb, the view is unreal, doesn't matter what direction your facing.
