Well, went out saturday for my first elk. Hunted all mornin saturday. Saw the elk all morning but couldnt get any closer than about 800 yards. After hiking almost 3 miles and climbing 2000 vertical feet in those 3 miles, gave up and went back home to get the horses. Went to a slightly different area and only took 45 inutes to get into the herd. She was about 6 years old to the best we could guess. A 302 yard shot. One shot one kill!! My buddy got his about 5 minutes later. WAs an awsome hunt and my first Elk!!!
