right now im just sitting in my dorm room waiting for my dad, grandpa, and uncle to get down here to go up elk huntin until tuesday. we have never been to this area and supposedly there is alot of elk in the area. so hopefully we put em on the ground. we are huntin area 332 around Dillon/Wisdom. has anyone ever hunted there? its bulls only so that kinda limits us. but the other side of the road is either sex so we might be huntin over there too. ill let you guys know how we did when i get back. good luck to everyone else this weekend.

shoot straight,

Cole

Re: goin elk huntin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well just to update ya'll we didnt shoot anything. we saw 2 elk. one was hanging up in a camp and the other was laying on the ground covered with grass and dirt.all you western hunters know what that means and if you dont it means a grizzly bear killed it. it wasnt jsut one that someone wounded and a bear found it. it was an elk that the bear ran down and killed. i was walkin through some sage brush and walked up on it. talk about make you look around quick. the bears kill it, bury it, and just wait for it to rot to eat it. and in the mean time they dont go far and just sit and watch it. so my dad and i got the heck out of there. but anyways that was all the elk we saw. we found beds, scat, tracks and fresh sign everywhere. never found them though. we didnt even see a deer. the only animals we saw was a bull and cow moose. we figured the bull would go about 50". definitly the biggest one i have ever seen. it drizzled rain almost the whole time. then yesterday it rained all day and all last night. so we were unsuccessful and to make it worse i had to go back to college for a couple days and do my homework tonight.
