No doubt there are big ones there, but most everything I ever saw while there coming out of Colorado, I would pass up here if bull hunting. All of the big elk are up in Montana these days. Only raghorns left in CO.

I was living in Phoenix and had arranged to meet some East coast buds in New Mexico for a bear hunt. I drove and picked my buds up at the airport in NM. We got way back in to our destination and the first morning I realized I had brought the wrong ammo. My rifle was a wildcat, so no option to buy ammo. I was chief spotter for the trip. We only saw one bear the whole week. It was a tiny dink. So we had a great camping trip. Make the best of what you can. Sorry your elk hunt got hosed Travis. Bob I met a French guy the other day. I asked him "Do you speak German?" He said "No." I said "You're welcome!"
