Ryan,
     Thanks for sharing your hunt and pictures.

  We are still setting records for heat here makes it a little tough to get too excited about this weekends Elk opener. I'm going up and make the best of it and hope for some cooler temps.
   
    Hope you make it out again this season.

The good news is next week there is a cooling trend here in Oregon and hopefully it will head east to your country!

I guess a little elk hunting is better than none, hope you get more time in the elk woods.

Thanks again guys. Porter I hope you guys can make it back out, I would like to spend some more time hunting with you guys. As far as the elk tags go, the spike/cow tags for archery are unlimited. Having said that there are a few units where only a spike may be shot.
