My brother found an old one in the middle of a big swamp, on some public near my place today, while putting a trail cam out.

I haven't been able to contribute much this Spring, but here is a good one. 16 kms, 26,000 steps on Easter Sunday. 3 chalkers and one for the keeper pile.

Pretty much done for the year, turkey season starts Wednesday. Put on half as many miles this year, as compared to years past. For every day i hiked i had to take at least two days to rest my back.
All but one were found on our farm or land that boarders it. Pretty good year, by my neck of the woods standards.

Was able to find the matching side to an antler I found in 2021, found in the same drainage.

Picked up the first sheds of the year out of the Deer Park here at work today, single and a set.

There's one in front and behind, making two in the picture, right?
I think what your looking at in the back is some piled brush.
I glassed the same spot today for a bit and the elk shed is now gone

Good haul
Not a shed, this one broke off. I found a mostly complete broken one last year too. This one had some velvet left on when it broke. You can still see remains of the skin on one tine.

I think you have a shed form a stag or cactus buck. Contrary to popular thought bucks with messed up testosterone do shed there antlers and often regrow another set. Sheds from these buck do not have the normal button on the base. Often the base is hollow like the one you found. Yours is a very extreme example and it looks like and animal could have chewed on it a bit. It is also common for sheds from these bucks to has remnants of velvet too.
Nice looking antler.

I went out on another backpack shed hunting trip. This time only a one-nighter. First day was a bust, I wasn't finding much of anything. Then today I found a set of brown moose paddles, my first of such. Also, I found an old wolf skull. Spots like this make me wish I had idaho tags come fall.
