For the remainder of the season we watched deer, antelope, hares, red fox and saw two more elk that were not legal. This antelope was one of three that came by us and it would not jump the fence so came to the gate and passed within 20 yards of us.

I was able to take several other good antelope pictures during the week.

We left for home at noon on the last day of the season and ran into these herders moving a flock down the road. An interesting sight for us Indiana boys.

So as the sun sets on another hunting adventure I'll close with a few thoughts. The Kimber Hunter is a winner. The Hornaday ELDX loads were accurate and had amazing results on the game. Everyone in camp with deer tags filled them but Brad was the only one to fill an elk tag. Not bad results for us flat lander boys from Indiana.

Lots of binocular time in that country. Nice write-up.
