You're probably on your way, good luck to you since the rest of us without tags are living through you guys.

Thanks for the wishes, we got back yesturday evening, frustrated. Walked, rode, sat, glassed....worked dark tember
and open. Saw NO elk, only two little fork horn bucks...not a single doe or cow! Only consolation was no one else was doing any good either!. Bagged a few grouse early and did see 3 nice bull Moose....one of which walked through the camp! No Moose tags as this is not a moose area yet! First I've ever seen live!We were blessed with snow,rain and about 2" of sleet right after we got tent up and tarps over it. I got a down vest that hasn't dried out yet!LOL We did have a wonderfull time.....thats what it's all about. Dan

First thing to pack on any hunting trip is a positive attitude. I'd be glad to hunt with you, if you put in the effort sooner or later you'll get your due.
