We got to the ranch about 12:30 this afternoon. Dang construction on I-70 at the tunnel at Idaho Springs was roughest part of the drive!

I'm headed up to 18 tomorrow. A bit west of you. My contacts say that clients were seeing elk, but success was low in first due to misses. Archery pulled some nice bulls out of 18.
Good luck.

You drew one of those special cow tags? 44 is an easy draw for a cow tag or an either sex tag. RWE, NH K9, and I just got back from 45 in CO from 1st rifle. Each of us had an either sex tag (all went unfilled). Report later.

kaywoodie, there was a tanker crash, hazmat spill at exit 240 (second Idaho Springs exit) in the morning, that's what probably slowed you down. My school is on the east side of Floyd Hill about 6 miles east of the tunnels. We get to play in that crap every day. Hope all goes well for you! Miller

My bull, a 5x5, went down at 8:38 Saturday AM. A couple of guys we know here, out of stater's as well, took 6x6's. The first being a really nice bull. The second being s terrific bull. Loads of elk seen. Mine was shot out of a herd of 64. The hot weather has meant nothing, but easier hunting.
Conduct is the best proof of character.

Saddlesore, where you on a "un-named" ranch? I heard a couple of Moose hunters connected with cows this season.
