I ran into these guys a couple years ago while bowhunting deer (didn't have an elk tag). That 6x6 would have had his own harem anywhere else but he was a satellite bull to a huge one further up the hill. That one had 20+ cows and he wasn't sharing.

Snubbie - if you were to get out here sometime in the summer, I'd take you up up there. It's about my favorite spot. The 2d pic is the 2d largest of 4 lakes up there. However, I've NEVER seen a deer in there. Not one.
