That's pretty much what I told Beignet when he sent me the pic! I think it made him feel even better, if that was even possible. I know he put the miles in too, glad to see he got rewarded with a nice opportunity
Hell Yeah! Thanks for all the communication during your hunt and mine, it made it even more fun especially because I knew we were both out there hunting alone. You got a nice one my man!
Now go find an elk!
Grizzlies have been eating a lot of caraway roots from what I hear. I saw one set of grizzly tracks that were at least a couple of days old and hope he was moving on.
Headed back up Sunday and will probably stay through Tuesday. I did sign up for Duttons but will probably only go there if...
Went out opening day and the trail I was using ended up being a fire line which has now been reclaimed. A lot of fun to walk that thing!
Didn't see much and left when the rain hit, but the area looks good other than the detours necessary to get around that reclaimed fire line
I was in the unit just over a week ago, but we were pretty busy building an outhouse for a hunting cabin so didn't have much time to scout. Got lots of rain up high that weekend but the Windy Rock fire sure has picked up since then.

Thanks for the good news! Probably most of the moisture was from last weekend but at this point I will take all we can get. I know the Blackfoot and Nevada Creek are very low. Hopefully it doesn't get too hot up there to dry things out
Thanks for the update and all your hard work. It is greatly appreciated!
It is very hard for me to be civil regarding this issue, but when it comes down to it I know that is the only way to proceed if we want positive results. I have been doing my best to spread the word and request those I...
I drew the same permit this year, also had it in 2015. Settled for a 160 mulie. The unit isn't what it used to be but I think if you spend time there's a few big ones there that appear during the rut.
Dutton is worth getting access for, assuming they still do it. Garrison side can be fun too...
