Hunted south of Ennis several years back. Some pretty country. Plenty of elk. I would suggest you make friends with someone with stock especially for the Madison range or planning on backpacking in and staying a few days. Gravelly side, good luck. Mine as well pave those roads, it’s in sane how...
Sorry to hear. Just buried mine last weekend, it really sucks. He had been with us for 14.5 years. You will know when it’s time. Even though they can’t tell us how they are doing, there is something about that bond with them that allows for communication.
Yep. Marlin 444. Saved up and bought it myself, about 40 years ago. Took plenty of whitetails with it. Would love to tag an elk with it one day. I’ve taken it a few times, just haven’t worked out yet.
Oldest son was in a bad accident last year, so hunting was minimal, especially for him. We have some whitetail trips planned for this year. Goal is to spend time with him and for him to harvest any legal deer.
