Hopefully no further than an hour from the house, as usual. We'll see. Elk seem pretty scarce around here, unless you want to herd-shoot a cow in someone's hay.
I belong on eroding granite, among the pines.

It's you and the bullet, and all the rest is secondary.

So. central Idaho. We hunt cows. If we don't draw, there are a couple late open hunts with lots of tags. There are also lots of hunters which is why we try to draw for an earlier hunt. This year we ran into the migrating herd and 5 of us got 4 cows all the same day.

Turnaround at the plant with blocked vacations during hunting season this year so no CO trip for me. Probably just have to hunt the later hunts here around the house.

I'll suffer through another wyoming elk season with few elk and lots of grizzly bears.
Really wish I could move somewhere else to elk hunt.
