Ursus horribilis horribilis

[What Map]

My wife and I were on a 'noiter 35 miles souteast of Yellowston Park over the weak end. We were in sage brush broken country miles from the mountains when we came upon the following tracks. The case is a 30.06.



We also saw this nice buck. It was with a larger one, but we could not get a pic of the bigger one. Unfortunately, neither of us has a WY deer tag this year.



Also those of you heading to WY hunt pronghorns, might have to get away from paved roads to find one.

Absaroka Front?

Wouldn't surprised in the least to see one out there. We saw a good sized herd of elk down on the Greybull river yesterday.

You are close, but IMHO looks to be a 6 1/2 by measurement of brass.

Beware of hippies hiking in the woods.

Perfect! That's about right where I'm heading with my buddy on Friday, NE of Thermopolis.

I hope the other part of that 30-06 bullet is in the guts of that trackmaker
