I think it’s elk roughly 12 0 for me

54 miles (1865 for the year) most miles walking my rifle. Both strength training sessions squeezed in.

One week left of elk season.

After a two year hiatus because of resistant high blood pressure I am back. I have been lifting for two months. No blood pressure problems. Strength is coming back. I can do up to 10 circuits. I figure I am about four months from being at primo. My bench is back up to 345lbs and that is workable for 55 yo. Cardio four times per week. I also get about 12,000 steps per day.

Sled drags, squats, lunges, 20mins stairmaster

Well last week of the season went like the previous weeks; lots of hiking and climbing and no bull to show for it- not the first time.

52 miles (1917 for the year); didn't get either strength session in this last week- will get back to it this week.

Worse places to spend the day(s)

Yesterday was lowerbody. Squats, leg press, lunges, the 20mins on the stairmaster at level 8.

Thats BEAUTIFUL country, lovely and a great picture . I am at 1,059 miles for the year. My goal was to not overdo and break 1,000 so L made my objective early. Right arm and shoulder are still acting up, so the weights are out. I will continue hikeing as weather permits.
