A few pics from elk camp this month. All were from East-central Arizona. Camp was at 9300'

Camp as view from the middle of our meadow.

Important element of any elk camp!

Inside the eating tent- yeh, I know, we were really roughing it. Fresh cinnamon rolls every morning and fresh bread rolls every night!

We never saw 70 the entire 2 1/2 weeks. Was a nice reprieve from home, where it was frequently over 100!

I love visiting northern AZ, especially up in the rim country. You can hang in the Ponderosa pines or drop down just a bit to the pinon-juniper country. Awesome area. Good old hunting buddy of mine lives in Payson... sends me video periodically of elk bedded in his front yard just to pizz me off...

Nice setup
I think I just found my new retirement spot!
Arizona is one of the lovliest states in the country. I hunted unit 7E north of Flagstaff a few years ago and it was simply awesome.

I've spent alot of time in the Phoenix area and enjoy that as well.

LOTS of diversity in the state.

That camp is outrageous! lol

Like those four legged friends of yours, looks like they like it there.

Man, those are some great looking mules.
Dennis, almost looks too plush to call it a "camp" wink Hope the elk were bugling to y'all.

Dennis knows how to do it!

You just got spoiled by that USFS latrine at the Quemado Lake campground. You'll get over it.
