No, I am now down to just carrying the back straps. Looking pretty good at this point.

Deep Lake area. Probably not the best hunting but we are old men who like to camp and tell lies. We know the area, and are not that adventurous anymore. Stop by and share a glass of prune juice or geritol.

Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

I hope they are there when you get up their.. Last time I check 171 is in North Park (Routt National Forest) and Granby is in Middle Park (Arapaho National Forest)and their something like the Continental Divide that separates them. Granby is part of unit 18 which goes west about 20 miles and when I say I'll be around Granby, I forgot to mention what part I'll be around. Since first season is draw tag I'm sure someone who drew 171 appreciate your report.

You live Co so you do understand that lot of hunters set up camp early in more than just unit 18.

NO signs of the rut going on in South Central CO during MZ season, a lot of reports of silence from around the state during archery. A few units had some activity going on, but this has been a strange year. I think the peak rut might have happened right between the end of archery and the start of rifle, but I bet you will still see some activity. It has been a very warm, dry fall all over the state.
Good luck to you gents!

Heard a little bugling on each of the last few days. About half of the cow groups have one or more small to medium sized bulls with them, but not a lot of overt rutting behavior. It's warm (68 degrees) as I sit here typing at a little over 7,000 ft elevation. Elk seem to be either up high or down pretty low but not so much in the mid elevations. Getting antsy  wishing everyone good luck and good hunting!
