Got back a few minutes ago...Man, Pine Beetle have done a
number on my end of my GMU....DEAD. We arrived Thursday morning, set camp and did some recons that afternoon and Friday.Pines were brown...Aspens were bare...no ground greenies...no Elk Bites on Aspens....
Saw a few (very few) deer...couple of cows ...no bulls....couple of
Moose cows. I did pop 2 blues with pistol. They were good eating.
FEW hunters....walked...sat....glassed....saw nothing shoot able!
I had heard of the big winter kill off...didn't believe it....think I'm looking for a new area down in the San Juans!!!!
Had a wonderful time though, great partner! Only consolation is no one else was killing anything......gonna spend tomorrow cleaning and storing gear.
Guess thats why it's called hunting!!!!LOL
